If “MOON” is coded as “LNLM” and “SUN” is coded as “RVM”, then using the same pattern, “STAR” can be coded as:
A) RSBQ
B) RSUQ
C) RUSB
D) RTAQ
E) RSBP
Correct Answer: WRONG Question
The question is wrong because:
- The coding from MOON → LNLM does not follow a consistent pattern (shifts are −1, +1, −2, −1), which is irregular.
- The coding from SUN → RVM follows a different pattern (−1, +1, +1), which contradicts the first transformation.
- No single uniform rule explains both examples simultaneously (neither positional shift nor alternating logic works).
- Applying different valid assumptions leads to multiple possible codes for STAR.
- Hence, the coding logic is ambiguous and does not yield a unique answer.
