If GOAL is coded as LTFQ, then what is the code for BEAT?
If GOAL is coded as LTFQ, then what is the code for BEAT?
Explanation
Let's analyze the pattern:
G -> L (shift of 3 letters forward in the alphabet: G=7, L=12, 12-7=5; however, considering a pattern, it seems more like each letter is shifted by its position or another pattern)
O -> T (O=15, T=20, 20-15=5)
A -> F (A=1, F=6, 6-1=5)
L -> Q (L=12, Q=17, 17-12=5)
Each letter is shifted 5 positions forward in the alphabet.
Applying the same pattern to BEAT:
B (2) -> G (7)
E (5) -> J (10)
A (1) -> F (6)
T (20) -> Y (25)
So, BEAT would be coded as GJFY.
