In a certain code language MONKEY is written as LNMJDX. How will TIGER be written in that code ?
Answer: C
Correct answer: SHFDQ
Each letter of the original is replaced by the letter immediately before it in the alphabet: M becomes L, O becomes N, and so on throughout.
Applying the same shift to TIGER gives S, H, F, D, Q.

In a certain code, MONKEY is written as XDJMNL. How is TIGER written in that code ?
Answer: A
Correct answer: QDFHS
Two operations are combined. Reverse MONKEY to get YEKNOM, then move each letter one place back: Y→X, E→D, K→J, N→M, O→N, M→L, giving XDJMNL. TIGER reversed is REGIT, and stepping each back gives R→Q, E→D, G→F, I→H, T→S, so the code is QDFHS.

If BOMBAY is written as MYMYMY, how will TAMIL NADU be written in that code ?
Answer: B
Correct answer: MNUMNUMNU
The code is built from every third letter. BOMBAY has six letters, and taking the third and the sixth gives M and Y, written three times over as MYMYMY. TAMILNADU has nine, so the third, sixth and ninth are M, N and U, and the code is MNU repeated three times.

If air is called green , green is called blue, blue is called sky, sky is called yellow, yellow is called water and water is called pink, then what is the color of clear sky ?
Answer: B
Correct answer: Sky
The question is what the colour of a clear sky is called in this language. A clear sky is blue, and blue is called sky, so the answer is sky. It is worth reading the chain in the right direction: sky is called yellow, which answers a different question altogether.

If VICTORY is coded as YLFWRUB, how can SUCCESS be coded ?
Answer: B
Correct answer: VXFFHVV
Each letter advances three places: V→Y, I→L, C→F, T→W, O→R, R→U, Y→B, the last wrapping past Z. SUCCESS gives S→V, U→X, C→F, C→F, E→H, S→V, S→V. The repeated letters again provide the check: the two C’s must give the same letter, and so must the three S’s.

If FRIEND is coded as HUMJTK, how is CANDLE written in that code ?
Answer: A
Correct answer: EDRIRL
The shift increases along the word. FRIEND to HUMJTK is F+2, R+3, I+4, E+5, N+6, D+7. Applying the same increasing shift to CANDLE gives C+2=E, A+3=D, N+4=R, D+5=I, L+6=R, E+7=L, that is EDRIRL. A constant shift would not reproduce the example, so the differences must be worked out letter by letter.

If FRIEND is coded as HUMJTK, how is CANDLE written in that code ?
Answer: A
Correct answer: EDRIRL
The shift increases by one along the word: F+2, R+3, I+4, E+5, N+6, D+7 turns FRIEND into HUMJTK. CANDLE under the same rule gives C+2=E, A+3=D, N+4=R, D+5=I, L+6=R, E+7=L, that is EDRIRL.
