Question

In a certain coded language 'BRIO' is coded as 'FVMS' and 'DRAB' is coded as 'HVEF'. How will 'ATOP' be coded in the same code language?

This question was previously asked in
SSC CHSL 2025 Tier 1 Question Paper (21-Nov-2025) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

EXST

This is a letter-shift coding question, so find the rule by comparing each letter of the word with the matching letter of its code.

Take BRIO → FVMS: B to F is 4 steps, R to V is 4 steps, I to M is 4 steps and O to S is 4 steps, so every letter moves forward by 4 places.

Confirm with DRAB → HVEF: D to H, R to V, A to E and B to F are each a forward shift of 4, so the same rule holds.

Now apply a forward shift of 4 to each letter of ATOP.

A moves to E, T moves to X, O moves to S and P moves to T.

Reading the shifted letters in order gives E, X, S, T, that is EXST.

Hence 'ATOP' is coded as EXST.
