Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
In a certain language, 'WATER' is coded as 'ZDWUQ'. How is 'FIRE' coded?
Step 1: Identify the coding pattern used in the word 'WATER' which is coded as 'ZDWUQ'.
Step 2: Notice that each letter in 'WATER' is shifted by +3 positions in the alphabet to get 'ZDWUQ'.
Step 3: Write down the letters of the word 'FIRE': F, I, R, E.
Step 4: Shift each letter of 'FIRE' by +3 positions: F -> G, I -> J, R -> T, E -> F.
Step 5: Combine the shifted letters to form the coded word: GJTF.
Letter Shifting – The question tests the ability to recognize a pattern in letter coding, specifically a Caesar cipher where each letter is shifted by a fixed number of positions in the alphabet.
