Question

In a code language BANK is coded as DCPM. Then which word is coded as PWODGT?

• A. COVERS
• B. NUMBER
• C. POWDER
• D. GENDER

Hint:

For decoding, reverse the coding operation. If the code adds \(2\), decoding subtracts \(2\).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Concept:
The coding pattern is: \[ \text{Original letter}+2=\text{Coded letter} \] So, for decoding: \[ \text{Coded letter}-2=\text{Original letter} \]

Step 1: Decode PWODGT. \[ P\rightarrow N \] \[ W\rightarrow U \] \[ O\rightarrow M \] \[ D\rightarrow B \] \[ G\rightarrow E \] \[ T\rightarrow R \]

Step 2: Write the decoded word. \[ \text{PWODGT}\rightarrow \text{NUMBER} \]

Step 3: Final answer. \[ \boxed{\text{NUMBER}} \]
