If "TAP" is coded as "SZO", then how will "FREEZE " be coded?
Word coding:
To solve this coding problem, we need to identify the pattern used to code the word "TAP" as "SZO". By observing the given code, we can see that each letter in the word "TAP" is replaced with a letter that is three positions ahead in the alphabet.
Identifying the pattern:
To further understand the pattern, let's analyze the alphabet positions of the letters in the word "TAP" and their corresponding coded letters:
T -> S (T is the 20th letter in the alphabet, and S is the 19th letter, which is three positions ahead)
A -> Z (A is the 1st letter in the alphabet, and Z is the 26th letter, which is three positions ahead)
P -> O (P is the 16th letter in the alphabet, and O is the 15th letter, which is three positions ahead)
Based on this analysis, we can conclude that each letter is coded by replacing it with a letter that is three positions ahead in the alphabet.
Coding "FREEZE":
Now that we have identified the pattern, we can apply it to the word "FREEZE" to determine its coded form.
F -> ?
R -> ?
E -> ?
E -> ?
Z -> ?
E -> ?
To find the coded form of each letter, we need to determine the letter that is three positions ahead in the alphabet.
F -> C (F is the 6th letter in the alphabet, and C is the 3rd letter, which is three positions ahead)
R -> O (R is the 18th letter in the alphabet, and O is the 15th letter, which is three positions ahead)
E -> B (E is the 5th letter in the alphabet, and B is the 2nd letter, which is three positions ahead)
E -> B (E is the 5th letter in the alphabet, and B is the 2nd letter, which is three positions ahead)
Z -> W (Z is the 26th letter in the alphabet, and W is the 23rd letter, which is three positions ahead)
E -> B (E is the 5th letter in the alphabet, and B is the 2nd letter, which is three positions ahead)
Therefore, the coded form of "FREEZE" would be "COBBWB".
