In a code language, 'TIMBER' is coded as “2064141121” and “JUNGLE” is coded as “7139152311”. Which of the following are correct matches as per the given code language?

WORDCODE
(i) STAR(X) 2220715
(ii) NEST(Y) 616413
(iii) LAND(Z) 2022220

The correct answer is

i-Z, ii-X only

Write the word in reverse and take alphabet positions, adding 2 and 1 alternately. TIMBER reversed is REBMIT: R(18)+2 = 20, E(5)+1 = 6, B(2)+2 = 4, M(13)+1 = 14, I(9)+2 = 11, T(20)+1 = 21, giving 2064141121.

Check: JUNGLE reversed is ELGNUJ: 5+2 = 7, 12+1 = 13, 7+2 = 9, 14+1 = 15, 21+2 = 23, 10+1 = 11, giving 7139152311.

STAR → RATS: 18+2 = 20, 1+1 = 2, 20+2 = 22, 19+1 = 20, giving 2022220, which is (Z).

NEST → TSEN: 20+2 = 22, 19+1 = 20, 5+2 = 7, 14+1 = 15, giving 2220715, which is (X).

LAND → DNAL: 4+2 = 6, 14+1 = 15, 1+2 = 3, 12+1 = 13, giving 615313, which is not 616413, so (iii) has no match.

Hence, the answer is i-Z, ii-X only.
