If "TRAIN" is coded as "SPXEI" in certain code language, then the word "PEOPLE" will be coded in the same language as

  • A.OCLLGY
  • B.OCLMMC
  • C.OCLMMY
  • D.QCLMMC

Answer: A

PEOPLE is coded OCLLGY.

In TRAIN to SPXEI, each letter moves back by its place in the word: T-1 = S, R-2 = P, A-3 = X (counting back past the start of the alphabet), I-4 = E, N-5 = I.

For PEOPLE: P-1 = O, E-2 = C, O-3 = L, P-4 = L, L-5 = G, and E-6 = Y (again wrapping round from A to Z). That gives OCLLGY.

OCLMMC and OCLMMY go wrong from the fourth letter on, shifting P back only three places to M and then moving L forward instead of back, and QCLMMC starts by moving P forward instead of back.
