Question

In a certain code language, 'BEHALF' is coded as 'DCJYND'. What is the code for 'CLINIC' in that code language?

A.

EJKLKA

B.

EJLLLA

C.

EJKLKB

D.

EJKLLB

Correct option is A



Logic: The pattern alternates between +2 and -2 for each letter.
'BEHALF' → 'DCJYND'
B → D: B (2nd letter) +2 = D (4th letter)
E → C: E (5th letter) -2 = C (3rd letter)
H → J: H (8th letter) +2 = J (10th letter)
A → Y: A (1st letter) -2 (goes backward) = Y (25th letter)
L → N: L (12th letter) +2 = N (14th letter)
F → D: F (6th letter) -2 = D (4th letter)
Apply the same logic to 'CLINIC'
C → E: C (3rd letter) +2 = E (5th letter)
L → J: L (12th letter) -2 = J (10th letter)
I → K: I (9th letter) +2 = K (11th letter)
N → L: N (14th letter) -2 = L (12th letter)
I → K: I (9th letter) +2 = K (11th letter)
C → A: C (3rd letter) -2 = A (1st letter)
Conclusion:
The code for 'CLINIC' is EJKLKA.
The correct option is (a) EJKLKA.
