This question was previously asked in
RRB NTPC 2019 CBT 1 Question Paper (8-Mar-2021) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is
SZAKD

Coding Logic: RAT to QZS and TABLE

This question involves a coding pattern based on letter positions in the alphabet. We need to determine the rule used to convert 'RAT' into 'QZS' and then apply this rule to encode 'TABLE'.

Decoding the Pattern: RAT to QZS

Analyzing the transformation of 'RAT' to 'QZS':

  • The first letter R changes to Q.Q comes immediately before R in the alphabet.
  • The second letter A changes to Z. Z comes immediately before A when considering the alphabet cyclically (A follows Z).
  • The third letter T changes to S. S comes immediately before T in the alphabet.

The pattern is confirmed: each letter is replaced by the letter directly preceding it in the standard English alphabet sequence.

Encoding TABLE

Applying the identified pattern (replace with the preceding letter) to encode 'TABLE':

  • For T: The preceding letter is S.
  • For A: The preceding letter (with wrap-around) is Z.
  • For B: The preceding letter is A.
  • For L: The preceding letter is K.
  • For E: The preceding letter is D.

Therefore, by applying the rule, 'TABLE' is encoded as SZAKD.
