Question

If MAN is coded as LZM, what would WOMAN be coded as?​

Answer 1

Answer:

VNLZM is the right answer

Answer 2

       'WOMAN' be coded as 'VNLZM'.

• We have been given that 'MAN' is coded as 'LZM'.

        M = L

        A = Z

        N = M

• The trick is to allocate each letter its preceding letter and to consider the list of alphabets as a cycle, i.e. each letter has a letter preceding it. Here 'L' is the preceding letter to 'M', 'A', being the first letter in the list of alphabets will be allotted its preceding letter 'Z' and 'M' is the preceding letter to 'N'.
• Hence 'WOMAN' will be coded as

        W = V

        O = N

        M = L

        A = Z

        N = M

        Therefore 'WOMAN' = 'VNLZM'

        Hence 'WOMAN' be coded as 'VNLZM'.
