Understanding the Coding Language Logic

The question provides a specific code language where each letter from a given set is substituted with another letter. We are given the substitutions for several letters: U, A, D, N, B, E, and C. Our task is to apply these same substitution rules to decode the word "ABUNDANCE" and find out how it is written in this coded language.

Analyzing the Given Code Substitutions

Let's list the given substitutions clearly:

• U is coded as A
• A is coded as G
• D is coded as I
• N is coded as T
• B is coded as R
• E is coded as D
• C is coded as U

We can also represent this mapping in a simple table for better clarity:

Applying the Code to "ABUNDANCE"

Now, we will take each letter of the word "ABUNDANCE" and find its corresponding coded letter based on the rules provided:

• The first letter is A. According to the code, A is written as G.
• The second letter is B. According to the code, B is written as R.
• The third letter is U. According to the code, U is written as A.
• The fourth letter is N. According to the code, N is written as T.
• The fifth letter is D. According to the code, D is written as I.
• The sixth letter is A. According to the code, A is written as G.
• The seventh letter is N. According to the code, N is written as T.
• The eighth letter is C. According to the code, C is written as U.
• The ninth letter is E. According to the code, E is written as D.

Combining the coded letters in order, we get: G R A T I G T U D.

Comparing with the Options

Let's check the derived coded word "GRATIGTUD" against the given options:

1. GRATITUDE
2. GRATITGUD
3. RGATIGTUD
4. GRATIGTUD

Our result, GRATIGTUD, matches option 4 exactly.

Conclusion on ABUNDANCE Coding

Following the letter substitution rules provided in the code language, the word ABUNDANCE is written as GRATIGTUD.

Additional Information: Understanding Coding-Decoding Questions

Coding-decoding questions are common in reasoning ability tests. They assess your ability to identify patterns and apply rules. These questions usually involve letters, numbers, or symbols being replaced according to a specific logic.

Types of coding include:

• Letter Coding: Letters are substituted based on their position in the alphabet, a jumbled order, or a direct replacement as seen in this problem.
• Number Coding: Words are coded using numbers based on letter positions, counts, or other numerical logic.
• Symbol Coding: Letters or words are coded using symbols.

To solve these problems, it's crucial to carefully observe the given examples, identify the underlying rule or pattern, and then apply it consistently to the word or message you need to decode or encode.
