UDOMETER is coded as DUMOTERE then how will SUBLEASE be coded?
Correct answer: C. USLBAEES
- A. USBAELES
- B. USLBESAE
- C. USLBAEES
- D. USLBEAES
Explanation
The way this is coded is that alternate letters in the word are moved one word forward. So U went after D, O went after M, E went after T, and the second last E goes after R. Hence for SUBLEASE, S will go after U, B will go after L, E will go after A, and S will go after E, giving us USLBAEES.
