Question

In each of the following questions, the second word is formed by rearranging the letters of the first word using a specific transformation, such as reversal or block shifting. Identify that transformation and apply it to the third word to choose the correct option. KITCAT: CATTIK:: PENTOP : ?

• A. TOPPEN
• B. TOPNEP
• C. POPTEN
• D. PIPTEN

Answer 1

Answer:

B. TOPNEP

$\text{KITCAT} \rightarrow \text{CATTIK}$

Here,

• Split into two parts:
  $\text{KIT} \quad \text{CAT}$
  

• Then interchange the parts:
  $\text{CAT} \quad \text{KIT}$
  

• Finally reverse the second part:
  $\text{CAT} + \text{TIK} = \text{CATTIK}$

Now apply the same rule to PENTOP:

$\text{PEN} \quad \text{TOP}$

Interchange:

$\text{TOP} \quad \text{PEN}$

Reverse the second part:

$\text{TOP} + \text{NEP} = \boxed{\text{TOPNEP}}$
