Decoding the GARDEN to FZQCDM Cipher
The problem asks us to determine the coded form of FZQCDM based on the given example: GARDEN is coded as FZQCDM. This requires identifying the coding pattern used.
Identifying the Coding Pattern
We compare the letters of GARDEN to FZQCDM:
- G → F
- A → Z
- R → Q
- D → C
- E → D
- N → M
By examining the English alphabet, we can see that each letter in GARDEN is replaced by the letter immediately preceding it. This is a consistent shift of -1 position in the alphabet.
- G is the 7th letter, F is the 6th.
- A is the 1st letter, Z is the 26th (wrapping around).
- R is the 18th letter, Q is the 17th.
- D is the 4th letter, C is the 3rd.
- E is the 5th letter, D is the 4th.
- N is the 14th letter, M is the 13th.
The established coding rule is to shift each letter back by one place.
Applying the Rule to FZQCDM
To find how FZQCDM is coded, we apply the same rule (shift back by 1) to each letter of FZQCDM:
- F shifts back to E
- Z shifts back to Y
- Q shifts back to P
- C shifts back to B
- D shifts back to C
- M shifts back to L
Combining these resulting letters, we get EYPBCL.
