In a code language, LINE is written as PMRI. How will WORK be written in that language?
- AATUO
- BASVO
- CBSWO
- DASVQ
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
The coding logic follows the pattern of adding a specific increasing sequence of odd numbers to the positional values of the letters.
Let's look at the positional values of the letters in LINE and PMRI:
L(12)+4=P(16)
I(9)+4=M(13)
N(14)+4=R(18)
E(5)+4=I(9)
Each letter is shifted forward by +4.
Applying the same logic to WORK:
W(23)+4=27→27−26=1=A
O(15)+4=19=S
R(18)+4=22=V
K(11)+4=15=O
Therefore, WORK is coded as ASVO.
