Question : Directions: In a certain code language, NATURE is written as MASUQE. How will POTATO be written in that language?
Option 1: OOSASO
Option 2: OPSAOS
Option 3: OSPAOS
Option 4: OSSASO
Correct Answer: OOSASO
Solution :
Given:
NATURE is written as MASUQE.
Subtract 1 and add 0 alternately to the place values of the letters of NATURE to obtain the required code –
N – 1 = M; A + 0 = A; T – 1 = S; U + 0 = U; R – 1 = Q; E + 0 = E
Thus, NATURE is coded as MASUQE.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for POTATO –
P – 1 = O; O + 0 = O; T – 1 = S; A + 0 = A; T – 1 = S; O + 0 = O
So, POTATO is coded as OOSASO. Hence, the first option is correct.
