Answer:

  • (1) and (3) are correct options

Explanation:

  • NOT is coded as LKF
  • FLY is coded as TNA

Using alphabet, we can see that:

NOT = 14, 15, 20 ⇔ 13+1, 13+2, 13+7 ⇒ LKF = 12,11,6 = 13-1, 13-2, 13-7

Coding for each letter is 13 + x ⇒ 13 - x

(1) TOP ⇒ FKJ

  • TOP = 20,15,16 ⇒ 13-7, 13-2, 13-3 = 6,11,10 = FKJ
  • Correct

(2) RUN ⇒ IFM

  • RUN = 18,21,14 ⇒ 13-5,13-8,13-1 = 8,5,12 = HEL ≠ IFM
  • Incorrect

(3) MUG ⇒ MES

  • MUG = 13,21,7 ⇒ 13+0, 13-8, 13+6 = 13,5,19 = MES
  • Correct

(4) HOT ⇒ RKG

  • HOT = 8,15,20 ⇒ 13+5,13-2, 13-7 = 18,11,6 = RKF ≠ RKG
  • Incorrect
