General Intelligence Coding and decoding Coding and decoding Question #7045 (CAT-I)

In a certain code language, if 'APPLE' is coded as 'BQQMF', then how would 'MANGO' be coded in the same language?

A NBNHP
B NBNHO
C NBNIP
D OBOIP
Correct Answer & Explanation
Option A
• The pattern followed is that each letter in the word is shifted one position forward in the alphabet. • A → B (A + 1) • P → Q (P + 1) • P → Q (P + 1) • L → M (L + 1) • E → F (E + 1) • Applying the same logic to 'MANGO': • M → N (M + 1) • A → B (A + 1) • N → O (N + 1) • G → H (G + 1) • O → P (O + 1) • So, 'MANGO' becomes 'NBNHP'.
