Question

In a code language, `APPLE' is written as `ELPPA'. How will `BANANA' be written in that code?

• A. ANANAB
• B. NANABA
• C. BANANA
• D. ANANBA

Hint:

For coding-decoding, check for simple transformations like reversal or rotation before assuming complex patterns.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

To solve the problem, we need to figure out the rule used to change the word "APPLE" into "ELPPA" and then apply the same rule to the word "BANANA".

1. Understanding the Given Example:

- The original word is "APPLE".
- The coded word is "ELPPA".

2. Observing the Pattern:

- Look carefully at the letters of "APPLE": A P P L E
- Now look at the coded word "ELPPA": E L P P A

- We can see that the coded word is the reverse of the original word:
The first letter in the code is the last letter of the original word (E),
The second letter in the code is the second last letter of the original word (L),
And so on.

3. Conclusion about the Rule:

The rule is to write the letters of the original word in reverse order.

4. Applying the Rule to "BANANA":

- The original word is: B A N A N A
- Reverse the letters:
A N A N A B

Final Answer:

So, in the given code language, "BANANA" will be written as "ANANAB".
