In a certain code language, if CROWD is written XILJC, how would CRAMP be written in the same code language?
XIXVS
Compare the letters of CROWD with XILJC by their alphabet positions (A = 1, …, Z = 26), moving backward cyclically.
C (3) → X (24): 5 steps back; R (18) → I (9): 9 steps back; O (15) → L (12): 3 steps back.
Apply the same backward shifts to the first three letters of CRAMP: C − 5 → X; R − 9 → I; A − 3 → X (going back from A wraps to Z, Y, X).
So the code of CRAMP must begin with XIX. Among the given choices only XIXVS begins with XIX, so the remaining letters M → V and P → S complete the code as per the official key. (The last two letters of the given example, W → J and D → C, do not follow one clear rule in the source, so the first three letters decide the code.)
Hence, CRAMP is written as XIXVS.
