Decoding Word Codes: HAT to TAH
This problem uses a simple substitution cipher where each letter is replaced by its numerical position in the alphabet.
Determining the Letter-Number Mapping
The provided code for 'HAT' is '8-1-20'. We can establish the mapping based on the alphabetical order:
- The first letter, H, corresponds to the number $8$.
- The second letter, A, corresponds to the number $1$.
- The third letter, T, corresponds to the number $20$.
This confirms the mapping: H $\rightarrow$ $8$, A $\rightarrow$ $1$, T $\rightarrow$ $20$.
Applying the Code to TAH
Using the established mapping, we can now code the word 'TAH':
- The first letter, T, corresponds to $20$.
- The second letter, A, corresponds to $1$.
- The third letter, H, corresponds to $8$.
Combining these numbers in order gives the code for 'TAH' as $20$-$1$-$8$.
Final Code
The word 'TAH' is coded as $20$-$1$-$8$.
