If EARTHQUAKE is coded as MOGPENJOSM then EQUATE will be coded as
- AMENOPM
- BMENOMP
- CNJOGPM
- DMNJOPM
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
This is a direct substitution code where each letter maps to a specific letter in the code string based on its position:
```text
E -> M
A -> O
R -> G
T -> P
H -> E
Q -> N
U -> J
A -> O
K -> S
E -> M
```
Using this direct mapping to decode EQUATE:
* E -> M
* Q -> N
* U -> J
* A -> O
* T -> P
* E -> M
Putting it together gives MNJOPM.
