Correct option is D
Given:
'MANGO' → 'KYLEM' To determine how
'GUAVA' is coded.
Let’s analyze the transformation:
| M |
A |
N |
G |
O |
| K |
Y |
L |
E |
M |
1. Observe that the letters move backward 2 places in the alphabet.
· M → K
· A → Y
· N → L
· G → E
· O → M
Now, apply the same logic to GUAVA:
| G |
U |
A |
V |
A |
| E |
S |
Y |
T |
Y |
· U → S (2 places back)
· A → Y (2 places back)
· V → T (2 places back)
· A → Y (2 places back)
Thus, GUAVA is coded as ESYTY.
