In a certain code language, DRINK is written as FJFPC. How will CROWN be written in that code?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → ISLPB
In this code the word is written backwards, and the letters then move back 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 places in turn.
DRINK backwards: K N I R D
K (11) back 5 is F (6), N (14) back 4 is J (10), I (9) back 3 is F (6), R (18) back 2 is P (16), D (4) back 1 is C (3): FJFPC
CROWN backwards: N W O R C
N (14) back 5 is I (9)
W (23) back 4 is S (19)
O (15) back 3 is L (12)
R (18) back 2 is P (16)
C (3) back 1 is B (2)
So CROWN is written as ISLPB.
