Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
If 'PEN' is coded as 'QFO', what is the code for 'PAPER'?
Step 1: Identify the letters in the word 'PAPER'. The letters are P, A, P, E, R.
Step 2: Understand the coding rule. Each letter is shifted by +1 in the alphabet.
Step 3: Apply the coding rule to each letter in 'PAPER':
Step 4: Shift 'P' to 'Q'.
Step 5: Shift 'A' to 'B'.
Step 6: Shift 'P' to 'Q' again (the second 'P').
Step 7: Shift 'E' to 'F'.
Step 8: Shift 'R' to 'S'.
Step 9: Combine the shifted letters to form the coded word: 'QBQFS'.
Letter Shifting – The question tests the ability to recognize a simple Caesar cipher where each letter is shifted by a fixed number of positions in the alphabet.
