In a certain code language, ‘CREDIT’ is coded as ‘ERCTID’ and ‘PEACEFUL’ is coded as ‘CAEPLUFE’. How will ‘AUTHOR’ be coded in the same language?

  • A.TUAROH
  • B.UAHTRO
  • C.UHARTO
  • D.TURAOH

Answer: A

AUTHOR is coded as TUAROH. In CREDIT to ERCTID the word is split into two halves, CRE and DIT, and each half is written backwards, giving ERC and TID. In PEACEFUL to CAEPLUFE, the halves PEAC and EFUL become CAEP and LUFE. For AUTHOR the halves are AUT and HOR, which reversed are TUA and ROH, so the code is TUAROH. UAHTRO, UHARTO and TURAOH reorder the letters in ways that do not reverse the two halves.
