If in a certain code language PROFESSOR is written as 'RTQHGUUQT', then in that language how will the word SCIENTIST be written?

A'TDJFOUJTU'

B'UEKGOVKUV'

C'UEKGPVLUV'

D'UEKGPVKUV' ✓ Correct

Correct answer: (D) 'UEKGPVKUV'

Explanation

SCIENTIST becomes UEKGPVKUV.

Each letter of PROFESSOR shifts forward by 2 to give RTQHGUUQT.

Apply the same +2 shift to SCIENTIST.

S+2=U, C+2=E, I+2=K, E+2=G, N+2=P, T+2=V, I+2=K, S+2=U, T+2=V.

The code is UEKGPVKUV.
