In a code language, 'TRAIN' is written as AITRS, and 'TRUCK' is written as UCTRP. How will 'CYCLE' be written in the same language?

  1. A
    CLCYJ
  2. B
    CCYLE
  3. C
    CLCYM
  4. D
    CLYCJ

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's decode the pattern used for 'TRAIN' → 'AITRS':
Rearranging vowels and consonants, or looking at positional shifting:

Letters of 'TRAIN' are T, R, A, I, N.

In 'AITRS':

First, look at the vowels: 'A' and 'I' are moved to the front.

Then, the remaining consonants 'T' and 'R' follow.

The last letter 'N' is changed to 'S' (+5 shift).

Let's test this with 'TRUCK' → 'UCTRP':

Vowels: 'U' is moved to the front.

Consonants 'C', 'T', 'R' follow in a specific order. Let's look closely at the exact positional shifting:
Let's assign original indices to 'TRAIN' (1:T, 2:R, 3:A, 4:I, 5:N)

'AITRS' uses: 3(A), 4(I), 1(T), 2(R), and 5+5→S.
So the pattern is indices: 3,4,1,2, followed by (Index 5+5).

Let's verify with 'TRUCK' (1:T, 2:R, 3:U, 4:C, 5:K):

3rd letter: U

4th letter: C

1st letter: T

2nd letter: R

5th letter + 5: K(11)+5=16→P
This forms 'UCTRP'. The pattern matches exactly!

Now, apply this to 'CYCLE' (1:C, 2:Y, 3:C, 4:L, 5:E):

3rd letter: C

4th letter: L

1st letter: C

2nd letter: Y

5th letter + 5: E(5)+5=10→J

Thus, 'CYCLE' is written as 'CLCYJ'.
