In a coded language BLOCK is coded as BCFCB the find the code of MOBILE
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
BLOCK → BCFCB
Look at the position of the letters:
B L O C K
Code:
B C F C B
Now, the letters are numbered:
• B = 2 → B
• L = 12 → 12 = 1 + 2 = 3 → C
• O = 15 → 1 + 5 = 6 → F
• C = 3 → C
• K = 11 → 1 + 1 = 2 → B
That is, each letter is converted to a letter according to the sum of the digits of its alphabetical number.
Now for MOBILE:
• M = 13 → 1 + 3 = 4 → D
• O = 15 → 1 + 5 = 6 → F
• B = 2 → B
• I = 9 → I
• L = 12 → 1 + 2 = 3 → C
• E = 5 → E
So the code is:
DFBICE
Correct answer: (3) dfbice.
