In a code language, ‘COOL’ is written as ‘EMQJ’, and ‘CARD’ is written as ‘EYTB’. How will ‘STAR’ be written in that language?
- AUCPR
- BPCUR
- CURCP
- DURPC
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's study the logical shift pattern between letters of the word and its corresponding code using alphabetical positions:
For 'COOL' 'EMQJ':
* C (3) E (5)
* O (15) M (13)
* O (15) Q (17)
* L (12) J (10)
The pattern is an alternating addition and subtraction: .
Let's check 'CARD' 'EYTB':
* C (3) E (5)
* A (1) Y (25) (since )
* R (18) T (20)
* D (4) B (2)
Applying the same pattern to 'STAR':
* S (19) U (21)
* T (20) R (18)
* A (1) C (3)
* R (18) P (16)
Thus, 'STAR' is written as URCP.
