If "APPLES" is coded as "BQQMFT," how is "ORANGE" coded?
Solution
Let's break down the pattern in the given example:
"APPLES" → "BQQMFT"
Compare each letter:
A → B (+1)
P → Q (+1)
P → Q (+1)
L → M (+1)
E → F (+1)
S → T (+1)
So the rule is: each letter is shifted forward by 1 in the alphabet.
Now apply the same rule to "ORANGE":
| O → P
R → S
A → B
N → O
G → H
E → F
