In a certain code language, the word OCCUPANT, is written as QEEWRCPV, What would be the word for the code FYZGRYLR in the same language?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 4

1. Analyze the Example Pattern (OCCUPANT →\rightarrow QEEWRCPV)

Each letter of the word shifts forward by 2 positions (+2) to create the code:

  • O (15) +2→+ 2 \rightarrow Q (17)
  • C (3) +2→+ 2 \rightarrow E (5)
  • C (3) +2→+ 2 \rightarrow E (5)
  • U (21) +2→+ 2 \rightarrow W (23)
  • P (16) +2→+ 2 \rightarrow R (18)
  • A (1) +2→+ 2 \rightarrow C (3)
  • N (14) +2→+ 2 \rightarrow P (16)
  • T (20) +2→+ 2 \rightarrow V (22)

2. Decode the Target Code (FYZGRYLR)

  • F (6) +2→+ 2 \rightarrow H (8)
  • Y (25) +2→+ 2 \rightarrow A (1) (wraps around after Z)
  • Z (26) +2→+ 2 \rightarrow B (2) (wraps around after Z)
  • G (7) +2→+ 2 \rightarrow I (9)
  • R (18) +2→+ 2 \rightarrow T (20)
  • Y (25) +2→+ 2 \rightarrow A (1) (wraps around after Z)
  • L (12) +2→+ 2 \rightarrow N (14)
  • R (18) +2→+ 2 \rightarrow T (20)

Putting it together gives: HABITANT
