If in certain language GRAPHICS is coded as IOCM HER, then how is HOMELESS coded in that same code?

Correct option is A

Given:

The word GRAPHICS is coded as IPCNJGEQ, and we need to determine how HOMELESS would be coded using the same rule.

Step 1: Analyze the coding pattern for "GRAPHICS → IPCNJGEQ":

Compare corresponding letters:

Observe the shifts for each letter:

1. G → I: Forward shift +2.
2. R → P: Backward shift -2.
3. A → C: Forward shift +2.
4. P → N: Backward shift -2.
5. H → J: Forward shift +2.
6. I → G: Backward shift -2.
7. C → E: Forward shift +2.
8. S → Q: Backward shift -2.

Pattern Observed: Alternating shifts:

• +2, -2, +2, -2, +2, -2, +2, -2

Step 2: Apply the same pattern to "HOMELESS":

Step 3: Combine the coded letters:

• The coded version of HOMELESS is JMOCNCUQ.
