Hence, code for FALSE = EGZBKMRTDE. ‘The word is reversed and each odd-positioned letter of the word is coded by its preceding letter, while each even-positioned letter of the word is coded by its succeeding letters. Hence, code for PENCIL is KJBODQ. As, P+1>Q Similarly, B+1-4C U-19T I-19H B+250 Yr25Aa L-294 P-25N 143 9u D+H3 9G c-3 42 H-35E Hence, CHANGE is the code for BIYPDH For questions 22 and 23: The best way to solve this question is find out the common letters and their respective codes and then use the elimination method, i i w 2 23.a 26a ‘On comparing BOOK, PIOUS and POWER, we get the code forO = L. PIOUS and POWER, we get code for P= S HONEST and POWER, we get code for HONEST and CHILD, we get code for H = X POWER and PIOUS and using the method of elimination, ‘we get that K cannot be the code for R. Therefore, the code for R = Q. Position number of each letter is halved ie, F(6) is coded as C(3), B(2) as A(1) and so on. Hence, code for ‘BLIXD' will be ‘AFELB’ ‘Sum of the positions of the letters must be 27, T4+G=20+7=27 E+V=5+22=27 2 2B.a 2d Similar, B(2) + 25(Y) (15) + 12(L) = 27 (15) + 12(L) = 27 K(11) + 16(P) = 27 So, the code will be YLLP. ‘The word is reversed and then the position numbers. are written as the codes for those alphabets.
