If BLOT is coded as YOLD, how is PLUM coded in the same pattern?
KORF
JOFN
KOFN
JORM
KOFN
Identify the opposite pairs (A=Z, B=Y) for each letter based on the English alphabet position (Sum = 27).
Identify the opposite pairs (A=Z, B=Y) for each letter based on the English alphabet position (Sum = 27).
Analyze the pattern
Compare BLOT to YOLD. B and Y are opposite pairs (B=2, Y=25; 2+25=27). L and O are opposite (L=12, O=15; 12+15=27). O and L are opposite (O=15, L=12). T and D are opposite (T=20, D=7; 20+7=27). The rule is to write the opposite letter for each position.
Apply pattern to PLUM
Find opposites for P, L, U, and M: P (16) → 27-16 = 11 (K); L (12) → 27-12 = 15 (O); U (21) → 27-21 = 6 (F); M (13) → 27-13 = 14 (N). Result: KOFN.
A: KORF is wrong because F is the opposite of U, not R; B: JOFN is wrong because J is the opposite of Q, not P; D: JORM is wrong because J is the opposite of Q and M is the opposite of N.
C is correct because the code follows the rule of substituting each letter with its corresponding opposite letter in the alphabet (where A=26, B=25... or Sum of positions = 27).
Whenever you see a short 4-letter word pattern, immediately check for reverse-alphabet pairs as they are the most common source of easy marks in SSC/Banking exams.
