The coding language used to code the given sentences should be decoded in three steps.
Step I: Count the number of letters in the given word.
Step II: Subtract the value obtained in Step I from the alphabetical number of the first letter in the given word. The alphabet corresponding to this number is the first element of the code.
Step III: Add the value obtained in Step I to the alphabetical number of the last letter in the given word. The alphabet corresponding to this number is the third element of the code.
Step IV: The middle element of the code represents the number of letters in the given word based on the following coding
5 – @
6 – $
7 – #
8 – %
9 – &
For example,
Consider the word ‘Dravidian’ is U&W
Step I: Number of letters in the word – 9
Step II: Alphabetical number of D:
=> D – 9 = U
Thus, first element of the code is ‘U’.
Step III: Alphabetical number of N: 14
⇒ N + 9 = W
Thus, third element of the code is ‘W’.
Step IV: As, there are nine letters in the given word, the middle element of the code should be ‘&’.
Thus, the word ‘Dravidian’ is ‘U&W’.
So, the code for ‘THOSE’ is ‘O@J’.
7.How is the word ‘SYSTEMS’ coded in the given language?

a. 16R%
b. 21R%
c. 16U*
d. 21U%
e. Cannot be determined
Show Correct Answers
C. 16U*
From the above statements, we can see that the all the
3 alphabet words have symbol %, 4 alphabet words have symbol #, 5 alphabet words have symbol *, 6 alphabet
words have symbol @.
The number represents the position of the first alphabet in alphabetical order. The alphabet in the code
represents the second last alphabet.
Similarly,
PROUD is a 5 letter word. So, * is to be used.
The position of 1st
letter i.e. P is 16 and the 2nd
last letter is U.
So, the code is “16U*”.
9.What is the code for “ground juice pigeon”?

From the above statements, we can see that the all the
3 alphabet words have symbol %, 4 alphabet words have symbol #, 5 alphabet words have symbol *, 6 alphabet
words have symbol @.
The number represents the position of the first alphabet in alphabetical order. The alphabet in the code
represents the second last alphabet.
“ground juice pigeon” is coded as “7N@, 10C*, 16O@”

In a certain language:
“Men and women equal” is written as “N@4, U*12, E%14, M#14”
“An early morning weather” is written as “R*25, T#18, N%7, A@14”
“Algebra was easy mathematics” is written as “A#19, E@1,M%19, E*25”
“Every mountain windy areas” is written as “E@19, E*25, N#25, M%14”
10.What is the code for the word ADMIRATION EMBRACE?
a. R@14, E&5
b. A@14, R*5
c. R@1, E@18
d. A*14, E%5
e. Cannot be determined
Show Correct Answers
B. A@14, R*5
From the above statements, we can see that each statement contains 4 words beginning with M, A, W, E. Also, each code contains symbols among *, @, #, %. So, we can conclude that the words beginning with M has ‘%’ symbol, A has ‘@’ symbol, W has ‘#’ symbol and E has ‘*’ symbol. The symbols are written in the middle. If the number of letters in a word is odd, then the middle letter is written at the beginning of the code and if the number of letters in the word is even then the first letter is written at the beginning of the code. The position of the last letter of the word in the alphabetical order from A-Z is written at last in the code.
Example: ALGEBRA
It begins with A so the symbol is ‘@’. It has 7 letters so the middle letter i.e. E is written at first. The position of last letter is 1. So, the code for ALGEBRA is ‘E@1’.
Thus the code for ADMIRATION is ‘A@14’ and EMBRACE is‘R*5’.
