Question

If IJKLMNO is coded ACTVSRX, then how is MILLION coded?

The correct answer is

SAVVAXR

Understanding the Coding Pattern

The question provides a specific code for the word "IJKLMNO" as "ACTVSRX". We need to analyze this mapping to find the coding rule and then apply it to the word "MILLION" to determine its code.

Analyzing the Given Code: IJKLMNO → ACTVSRX

Let's look at how each letter in "IJKLMNO" is transformed into the corresponding letter in "ACTVSRX":

  • I is coded as A
  • J is coded as C
  • K is coded as T
  • L is coded as V
  • M is coded as S
  • N is coded as R
  • O is coded as X

This is a direct substitution cipher where each letter in the source word is replaced by a specific letter in the coded word. There doesn't appear to be a simple alphabetical shift or pattern based on position. The code is based on a fixed mapping between the letters.

Coding the Word MILLION

Now, we will use the same coding rule (the letter mapping derived above) to code the word "MILLION". We will replace each letter in "MILLION" with its corresponding coded letter from the "IJKLMNO" to "ACTVSRX" mapping.

  • The first letter of MILLION is M. From the mapping, M is coded as S.
  • The second letter is I. From the mapping, I is coded as A.
  • The third letter is L. From the mapping, L is coded as V.
  • The fourth letter is L. From the mapping, L is coded as V.
  • The fifth letter is I. From the mapping, I is coded as A.
  • The sixth letter is O. From the mapping, O is coded as X.
  • The seventh letter is N. From the mapping, N is coded as R.

Putting the coded letters together in order, we get:

M → S
I → A
L → V
L → V
I → A
O → X
N → R

So, the word "MILLION" is coded as "SAVVAXR".

Final Coded Word

Based on the analysis of the coding pattern from "IJKLMNO" to "ACTVSRX", the word "MILLION" is coded as SAVVAXR.
