In a certain code language, 'LIQUID' is written as 'UDILQI' and 'HANDLE' is written as 'DELHNA'. How will 'NORMAL' be written in that language?

  1. A
    LNMROA
  2. B
    MLANRO
  3. C
    LRMOAN
  4. D
    MALNRO

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's look closely at how the letters are rearranged in 'LIQUID':
Positions: 1-2-3-4-5-6 → L-I-Q-U-I-D
The code 'UDILQI' takes the last three letters in reverse order, followed by the first three letters in reverse order:

Last three letters reversed: D-I-U → U-D-I

First three letters reversed: Q-I-L → L-Q-I

Combined: UDILQI

Let's check 'HANDLE' (H-A-N-D-L-E):

Last three letters (D-L-E) reversed → E-L-D

First three letters (H-A-N) reversed → N-A-H
Wait, checking the options against the exact question text 'DELHNA':
Let's see the direct letter mapping:
For HANDLE → DELHNA:
The 4th, 5th, 6th letters are D, L, E → rewritten as D, E, L? No, the letters are rearranged as:
Positions: 4, 6, 5, 1, 3, 2
Let's check LIQUID (1-L, 2-I, 3-Q, 4-U, 5-I, 6-D) → UDILQI:

Position 4 (U), Position 6 (D), Position 5 (I), Position 1 (L), Position 3 (Q), Position 2 (I).
Pattern match: 4, 6, 5, 1, 3, 2.

Let's apply this position mapping (4, 6, 5, 1, 3, 2) to 'NORMAL':
1: N, 2: O, 3: R, 4: M, 5: A, 6: L

Position 4 → M

Position 6 → L

Position 5 → A

Position 1 → N

Position 3 → R

Position 2 → O

The final word is MLANRO.
