Correct Answer: QPLJY
Solution :
Given:
MATCH is written as NYWYM, and BOARD is written as CMDNI.
Add and subtract consecutive natural numbers alternatively to the place values of the letters in MATCH to get the required code –
M + 1 = N; A – 2 = Y; T + 3 = W; C – 4 = Y; H + 5 = M
Thus, MATCH is coded as NYWYM.
Likewise, add and subtract consecutive natural numbers alternatively to the place values of the letters in BOARD to get the required code –
B + 1 = C; O – 2 = M; A + 3 = D; R – 4 = N; D + 5 = I
Thus, BOARD is coded as CMDNI.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for PRINT –
P + 1 = Q; R – 2 = P; I + 3 = L; N – 4 = J; T + 5 = Y
Thus, PRINT is coded as QPLJY. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
