Question

In a given code, SISTER is coded as 535301, UNCLE as 84670, and BOY as 129. How is RUSTIC written in that code?

• A. 633185
• B. 185336
• C. 363815
• D. 581363

Hint:

In letter-to-number code questions, always check if each letter is being mapped to its alphabetical position (A = 1, B = 2, ..., Z = 26).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Analyzing the given code, we notice that the letters are being replaced by their positions in the alphabet. - S = 19, I = 9, S = 19, T = 20, E = 5, R = 18 for SISTER (535301). - U = 21, N = 14, C = 3, L = 12, E = 5 for UNCLE (84670). - B = 2, O = 15, Y = 25 for BOY (129). 
Step 2: Now, applying the same pattern to the word ``RUSTIC": - R = 18 - U = 21 - S = 19 - T = 20 - I = 9 - C = 3 Thus, RUSTIC is coded as 185336. 
Thus, the correct answer is option (B).
