Show Explanation
Correct answer is XMVIZ(option D)
"GRASP" is written as "BMVNK". This was done by subtracting 5 from the alphabetical order number of the word "GRASP" i.e." 7 for G, 18 for R, 1 for A, 19 for S, 16 for P". When we subtract 5 from each of the alphabetical order of the word "GRASP", we will get the alphabetical order of the code word which is "BMVNK" as "2 for B, 13 for M, 22 for V, 14 for N, 11 for K"
Similarly when we subtract 5 from the alphabetical order no of the word "CRANE or 3,18,1,14,5" we will get the required code word which is "XMVIZ or 24,13,22,9,26)
