Question

In a certain code, if FAMOUS is written as FMAUOS, then how is LEGEND written in that code?

The correct answer is
LGENED

Given:
FAMOUS → FMAUOS

Let’s observe the pattern:

F A M O U S
→ F M A U O S

We can see:

1st letter stays same (F)

2nd and 3rd letters are swapped (A ↔ M)

4th and 5th letters are swapped (O ↔ U)

6th letter stays same (S)

So the pattern is:
(1 stays), (2↔3), (4↔5), (6 stays)

Now apply to LEGEND:

L E G E N D
Swap (2↔3): E G → G E
Swap (4↔5): E N → N E

So we get:
L G E N E D

Final Answer:

LGENED
