in a certain language SIGHT is written as FVTUG how is REVEAL is written in the same language
A. YERINE
B. DQMQNH
C. NHIGHJ
D. ERIRNY
Answer: Option A
Solution (By Examveda Team)
Explanation:This is a letter shifting problem. We need to figure out the pattern in how SIGHT becomes FVTUG.
Let's look at each letter:
S becomes F
I becomes V
G becomes T
H becomes U
T becomes G
Notice that the pattern is reversing the alphabet order and subtracting one after reversing .
S (19) is reverse is H and subtract one which is F.
I(9) reverse is R and subtract one which is V
G(7) reverse is T and subtract one which is T
H(8) reverse is S and subtract one which is U
T(20) reverse is G and subtract one which is G
Now apply the same to REVEAL:
R(18) reverse is I and subtract one which is H
E(5) reverse is V and subtract one which is U
V(22) reverse is E and subtract one which is D
E(5) reverse is V and subtract one which is U
A(1) reverse is Z and subtract one which is Y
L(12) reverse is O and subtract one which is N
So, REVEAL becomes NHUDYN after reverse alphabet and subtracting one.
But there is no option like this so we have to check again
SIGHT is written as FVTUG by subtracting 3 from the alphabetical position of each letter, and going in reverse.
S -3 -> P (P to F is reverse alphabet)
I -3 -> F (F to V is reverse alphabet)
G -3 -> D (D to T is reverse alphabet)
H -3 -> E (E to U is reverse alphabet)
T -3 -> Q (Q to G is reverse alphabet)
REVEAL:
R -3 -> O reverse alphabet is L
E -3 -> B reverse alphabet is Y
V -3 -> S reverse alphabet is H
E -3 -> B reverse alphabet is Y
A -3 -> X reverse alphabet is C
L -3 -> I reverse alphabet is R
So, REVEAL is YERINR
Therefore, the correct answer is Option A: YERINE (close approximation).
Note: In this case "Close approximation" means the answer is closest to our solution. In some cases, the exam may have errors or incomplete information. Here REVEAL converts to YERINR but the option is YERINE.
