Question

In a certain code language 'PGMS' is coded as '9-18-12-6' and 'TBRX' is coded as '5-23-7-1'. What is the code for 'KAVO' in the given language ?

• A. 14-24-3-10
• B. 12-25-6-12
• C. 11-21-2-9
• D. 15-26-4-11

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 14-24-3-10

First, find the coding rule from the given examples.

---

PGMS → 9-18-12-6

Alphabet positions:
P = 16 → 25 − 16 = 9
G = 7 → 25 − 7 = 18
M = 13 → 25 − 13 = 12
S = 19 → 25 − 19 = 6

---

TBRX → 5-23-7-1

T = 20 → 25 − 20 = 5
B = 2 → 25 − 2 = 23
R = 18 → 25 − 18 = 7
X = 24 → 25 − 24 = 1

---

Apply the rule to KAVO

Alphabet positions:

• K = 11 → 25 − 11 = 14

• A = 1 → 25 − 1 = 24

• V = 22 → 25 − 22 = 3

• O = 15 → 25 − 15 = 10

KAVO → 14-24-3-10
