Question 31

Logical Reasoning Coding Decoding Hard

If 'MANGO' is coded as 'KCLIM' in a certain language then how will 'SWEETY' be coded in that language?

(A) QYCGRA
(B) QYCCRA
(C) QYGCRA
(D) YQCGRA
View Dynamic Solution & Explanation
Correct Solution: Option A

Step-by-step Solution:

The coding pattern from "MANGO" to "KCLIM" involves alternating decreases and increases by 2 in the alphabet positions, starting with a decrease for the first letter.

Applying the same pattern to "SWEETY":

  • S (19) → decrease by 2 → Q (17)
  • W (23) → increase by 2 → Y (25)
  • E (5) → decrease by 2 → C (3)
  • E (5) → increase by 2 → G (7)
  • T (20) → decrease by 2 → R (18)
  • Y (25) → increase by 2 → A (1, after wrap-around)

Thus, "SWEETY" is coded as "QYCGRA".

Answer: (A) QYCGRA
