In a certain code, BASIC is written as DDULE. How is LEADER written in that code?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → NHCGGU
Let's find the pattern from BASIC → DDULE:
- B → D : +2
- A → D : +3
- S → U : +2
- I → L : +3
- C → E : +2
So the letters are shifted alternately +2, +3, +2, +3, +2, ...
Apply this to LEADER (6 letters):
- L +2 → N
- E +3 → H
- A +2 → C
- D +3 → G
- E +2 → G
- R +3 → U
Result: NHCGGU
