In a certain code language 'GERMANY' is coded as 9, 7, 20, 15, 3, 16, 27. How 'FRANCE' will be coded in this language?

A7, 19, 2, 15, 4, 6

B8, 20, 30, 16, 5, 7

C8, 20, 3, 16, 5, 7 ✓ Correct

D6, 18, 1, 14, 3, 5

Correct answer: (C) 8, 20, 3, 16, 5, 7

Explanation

Each letter is replaced by its alphabet position plus two.

GERMANY as 7,5,18,13,1,14,25 shifts to 9,7,20,15,3,16,27, confirming the plus-two rule.

Applying the same rule to FRANCE, take positions 6,18,1,14,3,5.

Adding two to each gives 8,20,3,16,5,7.

So the code for FRANCE is 8, 20, 3, 16, 5, 7.
