If AIRLINE is written as ENILRIA, then RAILWAY will be written as...

Appeared in: UPUMS Nsg.Officer-2024

Explanation

The coding pattern demonstrated is a simple reversal of the letters of the word.
The word 'AIRLINE' is spelled backward to become 'ENILRIA'.
Applying this same reversal logic to the word 'RAILWAY' results in 'YAWLIAR'.

Option B: This option incorrectly swaps the positions of the letters 'L' and 'I'. The correct reversal should have 'L' before 'I'.
Option C: This option fails to reverse the entire word. It incorrectly starts with 'R', the first letter of the original word, instead of 'Y', the last letter.
Option D: This option incorrectly adds a number '8' at the end. The established pattern only involves reversing the letters of the alphabet, with no numbers introduced.

Clinical Relevance

Nursing practice connection: This is primarily an exam-oriented knowledge point with limited direct bedside application, so retain This question tests logical reasoning, specifically letter coding and decoding using a reversal pattern as background academic context rather than a clinical decision trigger.
This question assesses logical reasoning and pattern recognition, which are fundamental cognitive skills.
For nurses, these skills are crucial for interpreting patient data, recognizing trends in vital signs, identifying patterns in symptoms, and making sound clinical judgments.
Strong analytical abilities help in prioritizing care, troubleshooting equipment, and responding effectively in complex medical situations.

How to Approach the Question

First, carefully examine the relationship between the given word ('AIRLINE') and its code ('ENILRIA').
Write the word and its code one below the other to visualize the letter mapping.
Identify the pattern. In this case, you'll notice that the code is the exact reverse spelling of the original word.
Apply this identified reversal pattern to the target word ('RAILWAY').
Spell 'RAILWAY' backward to get 'YAWLIAR'.
Compare your result with the given options to find the correct answer.
