Answers and Explanations
1. Answer - Option B
Explanation -
There are 26 alphabets in English and if we give assign to each and every alphabet starting from ‘A’, ‘B’, ‘C etc. , it will appear to be:
A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, D = 4……. likewise, till Z = 26
F + 2 = H, M - 2 = K
I +2 = K, L - 2 = J
R + 2 = T, Y - 2 = W
Therefore ‘FIRMLY’ is coded as ‘TKHWJK’ by dividing it into two part of ‘FIR’ and ‘MLY’ and coding it in reverse order i.e. ‘RIF’ at first and ‘YLM’ in second part.
Likewise,
P + 2 = R, L - 2 = J
U + 2 = W, I - 2 = G
B + 2 = D, C - 2 = A
Making it as ‘DWRAGJ’.
Hence the correct answer is option B
2. Answer - Option B
Explanation -
The words are coded by adding +1 to the next letter
B + 1 = C
L + 2 = N
A + 1 = B
C + 2 = E and so on.
So for CHILDREN we can have C+1=D
H + 2 = J
I + 1= J
L + 2 = N
D + 1 = E
R + 2 = T
E + 1 = F
N + 2 = P

Therefore, CARTED will be coded as: 257314
Hence, the correct option is A
4. Answer - Option A
Explanation -
As,
F = 4,
L = 3,
U = 1,
O = 6,
R = 8,
E = 7,
N = 5,
G = 2,
A = 9,
T = 0
Thus code for “NEUTRAL” is “5710893”.
5. Answer - Option C
Explanation -
G -1 = F
B -1 = A
N -1 = M
P -1 = O
V -1 = U
T -1 = S
