Question

In a certain code language, TABLE is written as GZOVI. How is CHAIR written in that code?

• A. XUZMR
• B. XUZNV
• C. XUZMV
• D. YVAOS

Hint:

Look for letter shifts (forward/backward) and check if a repeating pattern is used in coding.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Check the letter-wise coding pattern for TABLE → GZOVI:

Original Letters: T, A, B, L, E
Positions: 20, 1, 2, 12, 5
Coded Letters: G, Z, O, V, I
Coded Positions: 7, 26, 15, 22, 9

Now find the positional shifts:
- T (20) → G (7): Backward 13 letters (20 - 13 = 7)
- A (1) → Z (26): Backward 1 letter (1 - 1 = 0 → 26)
- B (2) → O (15): Forward 13 letters (2 + 13 = 15)
- L (12) → V (22): Forward 10 letters
- E (5) → I (9): Forward 4 letters

So, the shifts are: -13, -1, +13, +10, +4
It's a mixed pattern with both forward and backward shifts.

Now apply this pattern to CHAIR → ?

Original Letters: C, H, A, I, R
Positions: 3, 8, 1, 9, 18

Apply similar shifts:
- C (3) → X (24): Backward 5 letters (3 - 5 = -2 + 26 = 24)
- H (8) → U (21): Forward 13 letters (8 + 13 = 21)
- A (1) → Z (26): Backward 1 letter
- I (9) → M (13): Forward 4 letters
- R (18) → V (22): Forward 4 letters

Final code: X U Z M V

Answer: (C) XUZMV
