Question

If caring is coded as mpdrgf, and shares is coded as xlpdux, how could casket be possibly coded in the same code? Select one:



a. Mpxbun



b. Mxpgun



c. Lmpgfr



d. Mpddux

Answer 1

CASKET will be cőded as MPXBUN

a. MPXBUN

Explanation:

In the question, it is written that,

CARING is cőded as MPDRGF

C => M

A => P

R => D

I => R

N => G

G => F

SHARES is cőded as XLPDUX

S => X

H => L

A => P

R => D

E => U

S => X

Here, this sign ( => ) refers to "is changed to"

If we see both of them then there are some common changes like,

A => P

R => D

Now, we have to find what will be cőded for CASKET,

C => M    [Due to C being cőded as M in word CARING]

A => P    [Due to A being cőded as P in word CARING and SHARES]

S => X    [Due to S being cőded as X in word SHARES]

K => ?    

E => U    [Due to E being cőded as U in word SHARES]

T => ?    

We don't what will be the cőded letter for K and T but, if we see options of the question we can say that the correct option will be a. MPXBUN

CASKET will be cőded as MPXBUN

Answer 2

The correct answer is option a: M-p-x-b-u-n

• In the given question the word "caring" is written as m-p-d-r-g-f, and the word "shares" is written as x-l-p-d-u-x.
• That means the following letters are assigned as:

1. For caring:

• C=m, a=p, r=d, i=r, n=g, g=f

2. For shares:

• S= x, h=l, a= p, r= d, e= u, s= x

• So from the above reference of alphabetical letters, the word "casket" can be written in the following way:

• C= M
• a= p
• s= x
• k
• e=u
• t

• Hence, we get the sequence that matches option a.
