If TEMPORARY is written as BEDGFIAIG, how will PERMANENT be written?a)...
To solve this question, we need to understand the pattern used to transform the word "TEMPORARY" into "BEDGFIAIG".
Let's analyze the transformation step by step:
1. Write down the letters of the word "TEMPORARY" in order: T, E, M, P, O, R, A, R, Y.
2. Assign the numbers 1 to 9 to each letter in alphabetical order: A=1, E=2, G=3, I=4, M=5, O=6, P=7, R=8, T=9.
3. Replace each letter in "TEMPORARY" with its corresponding number from step 2: 9, 2, 5, 7, 6, 8, 1, 8, 4.
4. Rearrange the numbers obtained in step 3 in reverse order: 4, 8, 1, 8, 6, 7, 5, 2, 9.
5. Assign the letters corresponding to the numbers obtained in step 4: D, E, I, D, G, F, A, I, G.
6. The resulting word is "BEDGFIAIG".
Now, let's apply the same pattern to the word "PERMANENT":
1. Write down the letters of the word "PERMANENT" in order: P, E, R, M, A, N, E, N, T.
2. Assign the numbers 1 to 9 to each letter in alphabetical order: A=1, E=2, M=3, N=4, P=5, R=6, T=7.
3. Replace each letter in "PERMANENT" with its corresponding number from step 2: 5, 2, 6, 3, 1, 4, 2, 4, 7.
4. Rearrange the numbers obtained in step 3 in reverse order: 7, 4, 2, 4, 1, 3, 6, 2, 5.
5. Assign the letters corresponding to the numbers obtained in step 4: None.
As we can see, there is no valid arrangement of letters that corresponds to the numbers obtained in step 4. Therefore, the answer is "None" (option D).
In conclusion, the word "PERMANENT" cannot be written using the same pattern as "TEMPORARY" because there is no valid arrangement of letters that satisfies the given conditions.
