If ‘HEALTH’ is written as ‘GSKZDG’, then how will ‘NORTH’ be written in that code?

Choose the correct answer:

Explanation

1. Pattern Analysis (HEALTH to GSKZDG)

The logic involves reversing the word first and then shifting each letter backward by $1$ position in the alphabet.

Step 1: Reverse the word

\text{HEALTH} \xrightarrow{\text{Reverse}} \text{HTLAEH}

Step 2: Subtract 1 from each letter ( $-1$ shift)

H $\rightarrow$ G:

$8 - 1 = 7 \implies \text{G}$
T $\rightarrow$ S:

$20 - 1 = 19 \implies \text{S}$
L $\rightarrow$ K:

$12 - 1 = 11 \implies \text{K}$
A $\rightarrow$ Z:

$1 - 1 = 26 \implies \text{Z}$
E $\rightarrow$ D:

$5 - 1 = 4 \implies \text{D}$
H $\rightarrow$ G:

$8 - 1 = 7 \implies \text{G}$

The resulting code is GSKZDG.

2. Applying the Pattern to NORTH

Following the same two steps:

Step 1: Reverse the word

\text{NORTH} \xrightarrow{\text{Reverse}} \text{HTRON}

Step 2: Subtract 1 from each letter ( $-1$ shift)

H ( $8^{th}$ letter):

$8 - 1 = 7 \implies \text{G}$
T ( $20^{th}$ letter):

$20 - 1 = 19 \implies \text{S}$
R ( $18^{th}$ letter):

$18 - 1 = 17 \implies \text{Q}$
O ( $15^{th}$ letter):

$15 - 1 = 14 \implies \text{N}$
N ( $14^{th}$ letter):

$14 - 1 = 13 \implies \text{M}$

Final Answer

\text{NORTH} = \text{GSQNM}
