If MATCH is coded as NCWGM, then which word is coded as ETLRP in the s...
Coding is done as +1,+2,+3,+4. +5.
As we have been given code and we have to find the original word, it will be -1, -2, -3, -4, -5.
Doing the same from ETLRP we find the word as DRINK.(option C)

If MATCH is coded as NCWGM, then which word is coded as ETLRP in the s...
To solve the given code language, we need to identify the pattern between the original word and its coded form. Let's analyze the given word "MATCH" and its coded form "NCWGM" to identify the pattern.
Pattern Analysis:
- Each letter in the original word is shifted by a certain number of positions to obtain the corresponding letter in the coded form.
- The number of positions shifted for each letter is the same.
Now, using the same pattern, let's find the coded form of the word "ETLRP".
Word: ETLRP
Coded Form: _____
To find the coded form of "ETLRP", we need to shift each letter in the word by the same number of positions as in the word "MATCH".
Let's calculate the number of positions shifted for each letter in "MATCH":
M -> N: Shifted 1 position
A -> C: Shifted 2 positions
T -> W: Shifted 2 positions
C -> G: Shifted 4 positions
H -> M: Shifted 5 positions
So, the number of positions shifted for each letter is increasing by 1, starting from 1.
Now, let's apply the same pattern to the word "ETLRP":
E -> __: Shifted 1 position
T -> __: Shifted 2 positions
L -> __: Shifted 3 positions
R -> __: Shifted 4 positions
P -> __: Shifted 5 positions
Based on the pattern, we can determine the coded form of the word "ETLRP" as follows:
E -> F: Shifted 1 position
T -> V: Shifted 2 positions
L -> O: Shifted 3 positions
R -> V: Shifted 4 positions
P -> U: Shifted 5 positions
Therefore, the coded form of the word "ETLRP" is "FVOVU".
Among the given options, the word "DRINK" does not match the coded form "FVOVU". However, the word "DRINK" does match the coded form "NCWGM" for the word "MATCH". Hence, the correct answer is option 'C' - DRINK.
