Question

Code for letters in the word MENT are -

• A. ndti
• B. dtum
• C. mdit
• D. puit

Answer 1

The correct option is C mdit

In statement (i), (ii), (vii), (x) and (xi), the common alphabet is 'E' and the common coded letter is 't'. So, 'E' is coded as 't'.
In statement (v), (ix) and (xi), the common alphabet is 'N' and the common coded letter is 'm'. So, 'N' is coded as 'm'.
In statement (iv) and (viii), the common alphabet is 'UST' and the common coded letters are 'ain' not necessarily in the same order.
So, in statement (viii) 'M' is coded as 'd'.
Again, in statement (iii), (iv), (viii) and (ix), the common alphabet is 'U' and the common coded letter is 'n'. So, 'U' is coded as 'n'.
Also, in statement (iv), (viii) and (ix), the common alphabet is 'UT' and the common coded letters are 'ni' respectively. So, 'T' is coded as 'i'.
Therefore, 'MENT' is coded as 'dtmi' or 'mdit'.
Hence, option (C) is the correct answer.
