In a certain code, GREEN is written as EPCCL. How will ROAD be written in that code?
Explanation
The verified answer to “In a certain code, GREEN is written as EPCCL. How will ROAD be written in that code?” is PMYB, option C. The source working states: Correct answer: PMYB (Option D). Apply the same unchanged rule to ROAD: R→P, O→M, A→Y, D→B. Therefore the required code is PMYB. Wrong options: SPBE is wrong because it does not reproduce the verified rule at every position; TQCF is wrong because it does not reproduce the verified rule at every position; QNZC is wrong because it does not reproduce the verified rule at every position. Even one mismatched position invalidates a code, so only Option D is correct. This observation must be confirmed across every available letter position or every consecutive term before it is applied to the missing code. Applying the verified rule to the target expression produces PMYB. The alternatives TQCF, QNZC and SPBE fail because at least one position does not obey the same transformation. A useful final check is to map PMYB backward through the inverse operation and confirm that the original target is recovered.
