Question

If in a certain code language 'PUSH' is written as '1419176', then how will 'HIKE' be written in that language?

• A. 6783
• B. 6793
• C. 6193
• D. 6183

Hint:

In these types of problems, identify the pattern in how the letters are mapped to numbers and apply the same pattern to decode the new word.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Analyze the code for 'PUSH'.
Alphabetical positions of the letters in 'PUSH' are: - P = 16 - U = 21 - S = 19 - H = 8 The code '1419176' represents these positions in reverse order.

Step 2: Apply the same rule to 'HIKE'.
- H = 8 - I = 9 - K = 11 - E = 5 The code for 'HIKE' is derived from these positions in reverse order.

Final Answer: \[ \boxed{6193} \]
