Question

In a code language, If BELIEF is written as AFKKDI, then SELDOM is written as?

• A. TFKENP
• B. RFKFNP
• C. RFKENN
• D. RDKENL

Hint:

When one coded example is given, first determine the positional shifts between corresponding letters and then apply the same shifts to the new word.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Concept: Observe the transformation: \[ B-1=A,\quad E+1=F,\quad L-1=K,\quad I+2=K,\quad E-1=D,\quad F+3=I \] The shifts follow the pattern: \[ -1,\ +1,\ -1,\ +2,\ -1,\ +3 \]

Step 1: Apply the same pattern to SELDOM.
\[ S-1=R \] \[ E+1=F \] \[ L-1=K \] \[ D+2=F \] \[ O-1=N \] \[ M+3=P \]

Step 2: Combine the resulting letters.
\[ SELDOM \rightarrow RFKFNP \] Hence, the required code is \[ \boxed{\text{RFKFNP}} \]
