In a certain code language, ‘NOVEL’ is written as ‘LMTCJ’ and ‘OCEAN’ is written as ‘MACYL’. How will ‘PARTY’ be written in that language?

  1. A
    NXRPZ
  2. B
    MCPRX
  3. C
    NYPRW
  4. D

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's examine the pattern for NOVEL → LMTCJ by checking letter shifts:
N (14) −2→ L (12)

O (15) −2→ M (13)

V (22) −2→ T (20)

E (5) −2→ C (3)

L (12) −2→ J (10)

The rule is a uniform shifting of −2 positions for every single letter.

Applying this pattern to PARTY:

P (16) −2→ N (14)

A (1) −2→ Y (25)

R (18) −2→ P (16)

T (20) −2→ R (18)

Y (25) −2→ W (23)

Hence, 'PARTY' becomes NYPRW.
