Question

In a certain code, 'LATE' is written as 'VGZO', how will 'SHINE' be written in that same code?

Answer 1

If a certain code LATE is written as VGZO,then,
SHINE will be written as VMRSH in that same code.

Answer 2

Concept:

Coding and decoding.

Given:

'LATE' is written as 'VGZO'

Find:

How will 'SHINE' be written in that same code?

Solution:

To solve this type of problem, we have two steps:

Step I - Decoding the given code.

Step II - Coding using the decoded code.

Here given code is ,

'LATE'  ------->   'VGZO'

Converting alphabets to their numerology numbers, we have

12   1    20    5   -------->    22    7    26    15

From above, we conclude that,

12 + 15 = 27

1 + 26 = 27

20 + 7 = 27

5 + 22 = 27

So, this is the code for this problem that addition of numbers give 27.

Now, we have to find an equivalent of 'SHINE'.

In SHINE,

S = 19

H = 8

I = 9

N = 14

E = 5

We will subtract every number from 27 and will get the required word.

19   8    9     14    5 ---------> (27 - 5)     (27 - 14)    (27 - 9)   (27 - 8)   (27 - 19)

19   8    9     14    5 ---------> 22      13      18     19    8

'SHINE'    ------------------>      'VMRSH'

Hence, 'SHINE' will be written in that same code as 'VMRSH'.
