Question: If \'WATER\' is coded as \'XBTFS\', what is the code for \'FIRE\'?
Options:
GJTF
GJTE
GJTD
GJTC
Correct Answer: GJTF
Solution:
Each letter is shifted by +1: W->X, A->B, T->F, E->S, so F->G, I->J, R->S, E->F, thus FIRE is coded as GJTF.

If 'WATER' is coded as 'XBTFS', what is the code for 'FIRE'?
Correct Answer: GJTF
Step 1: Identify the letters in the word 'WATER'. They are W, A, T, E, R.
Step 2: Look at how each letter is changed to create the code 'XBTFS'.
Step 3: Notice that each letter is shifted by +1 in the alphabet: W becomes X, A becomes B, T becomes U, E becomes F, and R becomes S.
Step 4: Now, apply the same +1 shift to the letters in the word 'FIRE'. The letters are F, I, R, E.
Step 5: Shift each letter by +1: F becomes G, I becomes J, R becomes S, and E becomes F.
Step 6: Combine the shifted letters to form the coded word: GJSF.
Letter Shifting – The question tests the ability to recognize and apply a simple letter shifting cipher, where each letter is replaced by the next letter in the alphabet.
