In a certain code language, ‘INSTITUTE’ is written as ‘JOTUKWXWH’ and ‘OPPRESSOR’ is written as ‘PQQSGVVRU’. How will ‘TRANSFORM’ be written in the same code language?

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's analyze the pattern by looking at the positional shift of each letter in the words:
Case 1: INSTITUTE → JOTUKWXWH

I(+1)→J

N(+1)→O

S(+1)→T

T(+1)→U

I(+2)→K

T(+3)→W

U(+3)→X

T(+3)→W

E(+3)→H

Notice the division of the word length (9 letters):

First 4 letters increase by +1.

The middle letter (5
th
letter) increases by +2.

The last 4 letters increase by +3.

Case 2: OPPRESSOR → PQQSGVVRU

First 4 letters (O, P, P, R): +1→P, Q, Q, S

Middle letter (E): +2→G

Last 4 letters (S, S, O, R): +3→V, V, R, U
This perfectly confirms our pattern.

Applying to TRANSFORM (9 letters):

First 4 letters (T, R, A, N) +1→U, S, B, O

Middle letter (S) +2→U

Last 4 letters (F, O, R, M) +3→I, R, U, P

Combining them gives USBOUIRUP.
