C.f t c z
D.t c z a

Answer 1

Hint: In these types of questions you have to use mental reasoning and have to analyze the pattern of the given options to solve. Potentially do not jump to conclusion before analyzing all the patterns.

Complete step-by-step answer:
From statements (a), (b) and (c) we can observe that we have a common alphabet ‘M’ and common code ‘t’.
Hence, the code of ‘M’ is ‘t’.
From statements (a), (b) and (d) we can observe that we have a common alphabet ‘O’ and common code ‘c’.
Hence, the code of ‘O’ is ‘c’.
From statement (c) and (d) we can observe that we have a common alphabet ‘L’ and common code ‘g’.
Hence, the code of ‘L’ is ‘g’.
From statement (a) and (d) we can observe that we have common alphabets ‘BOL’ and common codes ‘dcg’ respectively.
Hence, the code of ‘B’ is ‘d’.
From statement (d) we can observe that code for letter ‘D’ is ‘z’
From statement (a) and (c) we can observe that we have common alphabets ‘LEM’ and common codes ‘gat’ respectively.
Hence, the code of ‘E’ is ‘a’.
Therefore ‘MODE’ is coded as ‘tcza’.
So, the correct answer is “Option D”.
