Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option D

REOGFO

Solution :

The correct answer is REOGFO.

Let's analyze the pattern used in the code language by breaking down the letters of the given words.

Case 1: 'MENIAL' coded as 'NIEAML'
The original word MENIAL consists of 6 letters: M, E, N, I, A, L.
Notice how the letters are rearranged into NIEAML:
- The 4th letter 'I' moves to the 1st position.
- The 3rd letter 'N' moves to the 2nd position.
- The 2nd letter 'E' moves to the 3rd position.
- The 5th letter 'A' moves to the 4th position.
- The 1st letter 'M' moves to the 5th position.
- The 6th letter 'L' stays in the 6th position.
Positional transformation: (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) → (4, 3, 2, 5, 1, 6)

Case 2: 'INCOME' coded as 'CONMIE'
The original word INCOME consists of 6 letters: I(1), N(2), C(3), O(4), M(5), E(6).
Applying the same positional mapping (4, 3, 2, 5, 1, 6):
- 4th letter 'O' → 1st position
- 3rd letter 'C' → 2nd position
- 2nd letter 'N' → 3rd position
- 5th letter 'M' → 4th position
- 1st letter 'I' → 5th position
- 6th letter 'E' → 6th position
This gives CONMIE, which matches the given code.

Applying the rule to 'FOREGO':
Original positions: F(1), O(2), R(3), E(4), G(5), O(6)
Following the pattern (4, 3, 2, 5, 1, 6):
- 4th letter is R (moves to 1st position)
- 3rd letter is E (moves to 2nd position)
- 2nd letter is O (moves to 3rd position)
- 5th letter is G (moves to 4th position)
- 1st letter is F (moves to 5th position)
- 6th letter is O (moves to 6th position)

Putting it all together, the code for FOREGO is REOGFO.
