Question

In a certain code; if PAY is written as DAE then DIP will be written as ______.

The correct answer is

BCD

Write the alphabet positions: P = 16, A = 1, Y = 25 and D = 4, A = 1, E = 5.

Each code letter is the letter at the square root of the original position: √16 = 4 gives D, √1 = 1 gives A, √25 = 5 gives E.

DIP: D = 4, I = 9, P = 16
√4 = 2 → B
√9 = 3 → C
√16 = 4 → D

Check: squaring back, B, C, D (2, 3, 4) give 4, 9, 16, that is D, I, P.

Hence, BCD.
