In a certain code language, 'MATURE' is coded as '7 26 14 22 9 6', and 'OUTPUT' is coded as '7 6 12 7 6 11'. How will 'REMOVE' be coded in that language?

  1. A
    9 12 22 12 22 5
  2. B
    22 14 9 22 12 5
  3. C
    14 22 9 22 5 12
  4. D
    12 22 9 5 12 22

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's analyze the coding pattern for MATURE → 7 26 14 22 9 6:
Let's find the opposite alphabet positions (27−position):

M (13) →27−13=14

A (1) →27−1=26

T (20) →27−20=7

U (21) →27−21=6

R (18) →27−18=9

E (5) →27−5=22

Notice the code given is: 7 26 14 22 9 6
This matches the opposite positional values but arranged in a specific order:
Let's align them:

Opposite of T(20) is 7 → 1st position

Opposite of A(1) is 26 → 2nd position

Opposite of M(13) is 14 → 3rd position

Opposite of E(5) is 22 → 4th position

Opposite of R(18) is 9 → 5th position

Opposite of U(21) is 6 → 6th position

This means the word is split into two halves of 3 letters each, and each half is reversed:

First half: MAT → TAM → Opposites: T(7), A(26), M(14)

Second half: URE → ERU → Opposites: E(22), R(9), U(6)

Let's check OUTPUT → 7 6 12 7 6 11:

First half: OUT → TUO → Opposites: T(7), U(6), O(12)

Second half: PUT → TUP → Opposites: T(7), U(6), P(11)
The pattern is verified.

Now apply this to REMOVE:

First half: REM → MER → Opposites: M(14), E(22), R(9)

Second half: OVE → EVO → Opposites: E(22), V(5), O(12)

Combining both halves gives: 14 22 9 22 5 12.
