In a certain code CONCISE is written as FTJBBNM. How is FISHERY written in that code?

Step 1: Write the letters with their positions

The English alphabet positions are: A=1, B=2, … Z=26.

CONCISE → FTJBBNM

Original C O N C I S E
Code F T J B B N M
Step 2: Find the transformation

Let’s check how each letter changes:

C → F → +3

O → T → +5

N → J → -4

C → B → -1

I → B → -7

S → N → -5

E → M → +8

So the code is not a simple shift; it’s a mixed pattern of adding and subtracting different numbers for each position.

Step 3: Apply the same pattern to FISHERY

Letters in FISHERY:

F I S H E R Y

Now, let’s apply the same shifts as CONCISE:

Position Shift from CONCISE FISHERY letter New letter

Step 4: Final coded word

FISHERY → INOGXMG
