Decoding Letters in Coding Language

The problem asks us to find the code for the letter 'S' based on the given coded words 'GIFT' and 'FITS'. We need to compare the codes provided for these words to identify the pattern or mapping.

Given codes:

  • 'GIFT' is coded as '7529'
  • 'FITS' is coded as '2596'

Let's compare the letters and their corresponding codes:

Step 1: Identify Common Elements

Compare the letters in 'GIFT' and 'FITS'. Both words share the letters 'I', 'T', and 'F'.

Compare the digits in their codes '7529' and '2596'. The common digits are '5' and '9', and '2'.

Step 2: Establish Letter-to-Digit Mapping

By comparing the positions and commonalities:

  • In 'GIFT' = 7529, the letters are G, I, F, T.
  • In 'FITS' = 2596, the letters are F, I, T, S.

The letters 'I', 'T', and 'F' appear in both words. The digits '5', '9', and '2' appear in both codes.

This suggests a direct substitution cipher where each letter corresponds to a specific digit.

  • 'F' appears in both words. '2' appears in both codes. So, F = 2.
  • 'I' appears in both words. '5' appears in both codes. So, I = 5.
  • 'T' appears in both words. '9' appears in both codes. So, T = 9.

Now, let's map the remaining letters:

  • From 'GIFT' = 7529: Since F=2, I=5, T=9, then G must be 7.
  • From 'FITS' = 2596: Since F=2, I=5, T=9, then S must be 6.

Step 3: Determine the Code for 'S'

Based on the comparison and mapping derived from 'FITS' = 2596, the letter 'S' corresponds to the digit '6'.

Therefore, the code for 'S' is 6.
