Solution

To solve this problem, we need to determine the pattern used to encode the word "ROAD" as "WTFI" and then apply the same pattern to decode "GJFY."

  1. First, let's analyze the given example:

    • R -> W
    • O -> T
    • A -> F
    • D -> I
  2. We need to find the relationship between each pair of letters. Let's look at their positions in the alphabet:

    • R (18th letter) -> W (23rd letter)
    • O (15th letter) -> T (20th letter)
    • A (1st letter) -> F (6th letter)
    • D (4th letter) -> I (9th letter)
  3. We observe that each letter in "ROAD" is shifted forward by 5 positions in the alphabet to get the corresponding letter in "WTFI":

    • R + 5 = W
    • O + 5 = T
    • A + 5 = F
    • D + 5 = I
  4. Now, we need to decode "GJFY" by reversing the same pattern, i.e., shifting each letter backward by 5 positions:

    • G (7th letter) -> B (2nd letter)
    • J (10th letter) -> E (5th letter)
    • F (6th letter) -> A (1st letter)
    • Y (25th letter) -> T (20th letter)
  5. Therefore, the word for the code "GJFY" is "BEAT."
