4)PEARL

cheers,

friend..the answer is 4th option.....

from the two related codes given....we infer that every alphabet of rewritten code is 2 count + than the previous alphabet.......

so for SHDUO.......find S - 2 = P.............U - 2 = R.....and hence forth....

Each alphabet is being replaced by the alphabet coming 3rd after it lik A is replaced by D,B by E etc so

here is another one:-

Q.A numerical machine accepts two values X and Y.Then it updates these values as X=XY and Y=Y+1 in every step.The machine stops at X>=N

if X=2 and Y=3,what should be the minimum value of N such that final value is Y is 7?
1)300
2)360
3)720
4)860

cheers,
chetna
