Correct Answer: HRQG
Solution :
Given:
FARM is coded as HDTP.
EGGS is coded as GJIV.
Add 2 and 3 alternatively to the place value of each letter of FARM and EGGS to get their codes –
FARM→F + 2 = H; A + 3 = D; R + 2 = T; M + 3 = P
Thus, FARM is written as HDTP in the code language.
EGGS→E + 2 = G; G + 3 = J; G + 2 = I; S + 3 = V
Thus, EGGS is written as GJIV in the code language.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for FOOD –
F + 2 = H; O + 3 = R; O + 2 = Q; D + 3 = G
So, FOOD is coded as HRQG in the code language. Hence, the third option is correct.
