Hence, option (B) is the correct answer.

In a code language, TUTORIAL is written as DODNGLCF and DANCE is written as YCJMZ, how can EDUCATION be written in that code?
  • a)
    ZJDONCGJT
  • b)
    ZYMODCLNJ
  • c)
    ZYOMDCNJ
  • d)
    None of these
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

T U T O R I A L   and    D A N C E
D O D N G L C F           Y C J M Z
so, code for EDUCATION is ZYOMCDLNJ.Code Transformation Explanation

- TUTORIAL to DODNGLCF
- T -> D
- U -> O
- T -> D
- O -> N
- R -> G
- I -> L
- A -> C
- L -> F

- DANCE to YCJMZ
- D -> Y
- A -> C
- N -> J
- C -> M
- E -> Z

- Applying the same pattern to EDUCATION
- E -> Z
- D -> Y
- U -> M
- C -> O
- A -> C
- T -> D
- I -> L
- O -> N
- N -> J

Therefore, EDUCATION will be written as ZYOMCDLNJ . So, the correct answer is D: None of these.

In a certain code, CALANDER is written as CLANAEDR. How is CIRCULAR written in that code?

I ⇘ R

R ⇗ I

C ⇘ U

U ⇗ C

L ⇘ A

A ⇗ L

R ⇒ R

so the code for CIRCULAR is CRIUCALR
