Question

In a coding system, ANSWER is coded as DQVZHU. Then QUESTION will be coded as

• A. TXHVWLQR
• B. TXHVWLRQ
• C. TXHVLWRQ
• D. TXHVXLRQ

Hint:

Always write down the alphabetical positional values of critical letters or use the "EJOTY" formula (\( 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 \)) to quickly calculate shifts.
Checking the first two and the last letters of the options can often help eliminate wrong choices quickly without working out the entire word.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Identify the coding rule.
ANSWER is coded as DQVZHU. Checking each letter: A+3=D, N+3=Q, S+3=V, W+3=Z, E+3=H, R+3=U. Each letter is shifted forward by 3 positions in the alphabet.
Step 2: Apply the same shift to QUESTION.
Q+3=T, U+3=X, E+3=H, S+3=V, T+3=W, I+3=L, O+3=R, N+3=Q.
Step 3: Form the coded word.
QUESTION is coded as TXHVWLRQ.
\[ \boxed{\text{TXHVWLRQ}} \]
