Question

If WUXWK corresponds to TRUTH , then FIGHT corresponds to

• A. CFDEQ
• B. FCDQE
• C. CFDQE
• D. CDFEQ

Hint:

In coding questions, quickly write down the EJOTY values (E=5, J=10, O=15, T=20, Y=25) on your rough sheet.
By checking just the first and last letters of the options, you can often eliminate wrong answers instantly.
Here, F - 3 = C (rules out B) and T - 3 = Q (rules out D). This speeds up the process!

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Understanding the Question:
The question is based on the coding-decoding logic of letters.
We are given a pattern where the string "WUXWK" is coded/transformed into the word "TRUTH".
We need to decode the word "FIGHT" using the same shifting principle.

Step 2: Key Formula or Approach:
Let us represent the English alphabet letters with their standard positional numbers:
A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, ..., Z = 26.
We will find the numerical difference between the letters of the coded word "WUXWK" and the decoded word "TRUTH".
We will apply this same mathematical translation to the letters of the word "FIGHT".

Step 3: Detailed Explanation:

• Let us write down the alphabetical positions of the letters in "WUXWK":
- W = 23
- U = 21
- X = 24
- W = 23
- K = 11

• Now, write down the positions of the corresponding letters in "TRUTH":
- T = 20
- R = 18
- U = 21
- T = 20
- H = 8

• Let us analyze the difference for each corresponding position:
- First letter: W (23) to T (20) \(\rightarrow 20 - 23 = -3\)
- Second letter: U (21) to R (18) \(\rightarrow 18 - 21 = -3\)
- Third letter: X (24) to U (21) \(\rightarrow 21 - 24 = -3\)
- Fourth letter: W (23) to T (20) \(\rightarrow 20 - 23 = -3\)
- Fifth letter: K (11) to H (8) \(\rightarrow 8 - 11 = -3\)

• The logical pattern is that each letter is shifted backwards by \(3\) steps (\(-3\) shift).

• Now, we apply this same pattern to the word "FIGHT":
- F (6) \(\rightarrow 6 - 3 = 3\), which corresponds to

C.
- I (9) \(\rightarrow 9 - 3 = 6\), which corresponds to

F.
- G (7) \(\rightarrow 7 - 3 = 4\), which corresponds to

D.
- H (8) \(\rightarrow 8 - 3 = 5\), which corresponds to

E.
- T (20) \(\rightarrow 20 - 3 = 17\), which corresponds to

Q.

• Combining these letters, we get the word "CFDEQ".

• Comparing this with the options, it matches Option (A) perfectly.


Step 4: Final Answer:
Applying the \(-3\) shift to "FIGHT" yields "CFDEQ", which is Option (A).
