In a certain code language, 'ALGORITHM' is written as 'AGLOYHIMT'. How will 'MALICIOUS' be written in that language?

  1. A
    MALIXUISO
  2. B
    AILMJIOSU
  3. C
    ALIMJISOU
  4. D
    MLAIXUISO

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's analyze the pattern by pairing/rearranging the letters of ALGORITHM into AGLOYHIMT:
The positions are rearranged based on index groupings or specific shifts:
Looking closely at ALGORITHM vs AGLOYHIMT:

Positions 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 are: A, G, O, I, M

Positions 2, 4, 6, 8 are: L, R, T, H
Let's see if they are arranged by alternative indexing or shifting:

Letters at odd positions: A, G, O, I, M
Letters at even positions reversed or altered: L, Y, H, T?
Let's look at a simpler shifting block:

Letters 1, 2, 3 (A, L, G) → A, G, L (sorted alphabetically or swapped)

Let's look at the options for MALICIOUS:
Following the exact positional mapping pattern of indices (1→1,2→3,3→2,…) from the example:

M A L I C I O U S→M L A I X U I S O / alternative order
Comparing the options, the letter transformation corresponds to MLAIXUISO.
