Coding & Decoding

1. If in a certain language MYSTIFY is coded as NZTUJGZ, how is NEMESIS coded in that language ?

A. MDLHRDR
B. ODNHTDR
C. OFNFTJT
D. PGOKUGU

Answer : C. OFNFTJT

Explanation :

Clearly, each letter in the word MYSTIFY is moved one step forward to obtain the corresponding letter of the code.
MYSTIFY
NZTUJGZ
So, in NEMESIS, N will be coded as O, E as F, M as N and so on. Thus, the code becomes OFNFTJT.

2.If TAP is coded as SZO. then how is FREEZE coded ?

A. EQDDYD
B. ESDFYF
C. GQFDYF
D. EQDFYG

Answer : A. EQDDYD

Explanation :

Clearly, each letter in the word TAP is moved one step backward to obtain the corresponding letter of the code.
SZO
TAP
Thus, in FREEZE, F will be coded as E, R as Q, E as D and Z as Y. So, the code becomes EQDDYD.
