Each letter is shifted forward by 1. \'F\' to \'G\', \'I\' to \'J\', \'R\' to \'S\', \'E\' to \'F\' gives \'GJTF\'.

In a certain code, 'WATER' is written as 'XBTFS'. How is 'FIRE' written?

In a certain code, 'WATER' is written as 'XBTFS'. How is 'FIRE' written?

Step 1: Look at the word 'WATER' and its code 'XBTFS'.
Step 2: Notice how each letter in 'WATER' is changed to create 'XBTFS'.
Step 3: Check the first letter: 'W' becomes 'X'. This means 'W' is shifted forward by 1 letter in the alphabet.
Step 4: Check the second letter: 'A' becomes 'B'. This also shows a shift of 1 letter forward.
Step 5: Continue this for the rest of the letters: 'T' to 'U', 'E' to 'F', and 'R' to 'S'.
Step 6: Now, apply the same rule to the word 'FIRE'.
Step 7: Shift 'F' forward by 1 to get 'G'.
Step 8: Shift 'I' forward by 1 to get 'J'.
Step 9: Shift 'R' forward by 1 to get 'S'.
Step 10: Shift 'E' forward by 1 to get 'F'.
Step 11: Combine the new letters to form the code for 'FIRE', which is 'GJSF'.

Letter Shifting – The question tests the ability to recognize a pattern in letter encoding, specifically shifting each letter forward in the alphabet.
