NIMCET 2023 — Resoning PYQ
NIMCET | Resoning | 2023If the word IMPACT is coded as RNKZXG, then which of the following represents the code for the word DESCEND?
Choose the correct answer:
- A.
WVHXVMW
(Correct Answer) - B.
MNBLNWM
- C.
MFBDFOM
- D.
MFBDNOM
WVHXVMW
Explanation
The code for DESCEND is (b) WVHXVMW. [1]
Explanation:
• By comparing IMPACT to RNKZXG, we can see that each letter is shifted three positions forward in the alphabet.
• D -> G
• E -> H
• S -> W
• C -> F
• E -> H
• N -> W
• Therefore, DESCEND becomes WVHXVMW. [1]
Why other options are incorrect:
MNBLNWM: This code appears to be generated by shifting letters down three positions in the alphabet, not up.
• (c) MFBDFOM: This code seems to be a combination of random letters and some shifted letters.
• (d) MFBDNOM: This code also appears to be a combination of random letters and some shifted letters.
