Question

The word GPVC is decoded as:

• A. fern
• B. born
• C. moan
• D. burn
• A. pie
• B. lie
• C. die
• D. are
• A. some
• B. sore
• C. sole
• D. site

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

We are given an encrypted sentence: SJ HVJ HMM GPVC BHI. LPBJ VJBHEC LP.– LHBZJMGJFAJXX

We need to decode based on the clues: Clues: 
1. H → A
2. B → E
3. C → N
4. L → S
5. I → D

We focus on the word: GPVC
We’ll decode it letter by letter using the clues and pattern matching. GPVC
- G → ? (not in clue, guess from options) - P → ? - V → ? - C → N (Clue 3) We know the last letter is N. Let’s compare this with the answer options: (1) fern (2) born (3) moan (4) burn All end in "n" – consistent so far. Let’s check if any full word matches using reverse substitution. Try (4) burn: - b → E (clue 2) → should map to B - u → ? - r → ? - n → C (from clue 3, since C = N ⇒ N = C) So burn → B??C We are trying to match to GPVC → so not likely. Try (2) born: - b → E (→ B) - o → ? - r → ? - n → C (→ C) Again doesn’t give us GPVC Try (1) fern: - f → ? - e → B (E = B) ⇒ B = E - r → ? - n → C Again does not start with G Try (3) moan: - m → ? - o → ? - a → H (since H = A) ⇒ A = H - n → C (as before) So moan → ???C Matches GPVC structure if: - G → M - P → O - V → A - C → N Which is consistent with clue 1: H = A → so A = H, and V = A here So possible! Therefore, GPVC = moan

Answer: (3) moan

Answer 2

To decode the word "HVJ" using the provided clues, we need to replace each letter in "HVJ" with its corresponding letter based on the clues. Let's go through the clues and apply them step by step.

Clues:

H stands for A

B stands for E

C stands for N

L stands for S

I stands for D

Word to Decode: HVJ

Decoding Process:

H → A (from Clue-1)

V remains V (no clue provided for V)

J remains J (no clue provided for J)

So, the partially decoded word is "AVJ".

Matching with Options:

Given the options for the word "HVJ":

pie

lie

die

are

We need to find the closest match. Let's compare the partially decoded word "AVJ" with the options:

"pie" → doesn't match

"lie" → doesn't match

"die" → doesn't match

"are" → doesn't match directly, but let's consider the structure.

Since none of the options directly match "AVJ", we need to consider if there might be a typo or if the options are not directly related to the decoded word. However, based on the structure and the given options, the closest match in terms of structure and common English words is "are".

Conclusion:

The word "HVJ" is decoded as:

are​
 

Answer 3

We are given: HVJ 

Use the provided clues:
1. H → A
2. V →?
3. J →?

We want to match this to one of the given options: (1) pie (2) lie (3) die (4) are

Try option (4): are - a → H (Clue 1 confirms H = A ✅) - r → ? - e → B (since B = E, Clue 2 ⇒ E = B ✅?) But J should be E then? That would imply J = E. Not confirmed. Try option (3): die - d → I (Clue 5: I = D ✅) - i → ? - e → B (Clue 2 ✅) So reverse mapping:
- D → I - I → ? - E → B → So "DIE" becomes: I ? B → matches H V J only if:
- H = D ✖ (But H = A) So Not matching Try option (2): lie - l → ? - i → ? - e → B → Not enough data Try option (1): pie - p → ? - i → ? - e → B Still, only one match. But from previous clue: - H → A (1st letter of HVJ = A) → So HVJ starts with A Now only option (4): are starts with A ✅ Let’s decode "are": - A → H - R → V - E → J → So if A R E = H V J → it matches perfectly. Therefore, HVJ = are

Answer: (4) are

Answer 4

We need to decode the encrypted word HVJ using the provided clues.

Given Clues:

• Clue-1: H stands for A
• Clue-2: B stands for E
• Clue-3: C stands for N
• Clue-4: L stands for S
• Clue-5: I stand for D

Decoding HVJ:

1. H: Clue-1 states that H stands for A.
2. V: No clue provided for V.
3. J: No clue provided for J.

Applying the known clue, the word HVJ decodes to A V J (where V and J are the decoded letters for V and J respectively).

Now, let's compare this pattern (starting with 'A') with the given options:

• (1) pie: Starts with 'p'. Does not match.
• (2) lie: Starts with 'l'. Does not match.
• (3) die: Starts with 'd'. Does not match.
• (4) are: Starts with 'a'. Matches the first letter.

Since only option (4) starts with the letter 'A', which corresponds to the encrypted letter 'H', this is the most likely decoding.

If HVJ decodes to 'are', it implies the following mappings:

• H -> A (Matches Clue-1)
• V -> R
• J -> E

Therefore, the decoded word for HVJ is are.

The correct option is:

(4) are

Answer 5

To decode the word "LPBJ" using the provided clues, we need to replace each letter in "LPBJ" with its corresponding letter based on the clues. Let's go through the clues and apply them step by step.

Clues:

H stands for A

B stands for E

C stands for N

L stands for S

I stands for D

Word to Decode: LPBJ

Decoding Process:

L → S (from Clue-4)

P remains P (no clue provided for P)

B → E (from Clue-2)

J remains J (no clue provided for J)

So, the partially decoded word is "SPEJ".

Matching with Options:

Given the options for the word "LPBJ":

some

sore

sole

site

We need to find the closest match. Let's compare the partially decoded word "SPEJ" with the options:

"some" → doesn't match

"sore" → doesn't match

"sole" → doesn't match

"site" → doesn't match directly, but let's consider the structure.

Since none of the options directly match "SPEJ", we need to consider if there might be a typo or if the options are not directly related to the decoded word. However, based on the structure and the given options, the closest match in terms of structure and common English words is "some".

Conclusion:

The word "LPBJ" is decoded as:

some​
 

Answer 6

We need to decode the encrypted word LPBJ using the provided clues and mappings derived from previous questions (assuming consistency). 

Given Clues:

• H -> A
• B -> E
• C -> N
• L -> S
• I -> D

Mappings from previous questions (assuming they are correct):

• From decoding GPVC as 'born': G -> B, P -> O, V -> R
• From decoding HVJ as 'are': H -> A, V -> R, J -> E

Decoding LPBJ letter by letter:

1. L: Clue-4 states that L stands for S.
2. P: From decoding GPVC as 'born', we inferred P stands for O.
3. B: Clue-2 states that B stands for E.
4. J: From decoding HVJ as 'are', we inferred J stands for E.

Assembling the decoded letters, LPBJ decodes to S O E E.

Now, let's compare this decoded word "SOEE" with the given options:

• (1) some: S O M E
• (2) sore: S O R E
• (3) sole: S O L E
• (4) site: S I T E

None of the options exactly match "SOEE". However, option (1) "some" (S O M E) is the closest, matching the first three letters (S O E) based on our derived mappings. The difference is in the last letter (E vs M).

Given that this is part of a series and assuming the previous decodings were intended, there might be a slight inconsistency in the puzzle's construction or the options provided. If forced to choose the best fit based on the maximum number of matching letters derived from consistent mappings, "some" is the most plausible option, differing only in the mapping for 'J'.

However, if we strictly adhere to the derived J->E mapping, none of the options are correct. Let's assume for the purpose of selecting an answer that "some" is the intended word, implying J->M for this specific instance, or that the J->E inference was incorrect/context-dependent.

Based on the closest match using inferred mappings for L, P, and B:

(1) some
