SSC CPO - 05 Oct 2023 - Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q184

In a certain code language, ‘BABY’ is coded as ‘29’, and ‘GENDER’ is coded as ‘52’. How will ‘CRIPPLE’ be coded in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option  3 i.e. 78.

BABY = 2 + 1 + 2 + 25 = 30

Code = 30 - 1 = 29

Similarly; CRIPPLE = 3 + 18 + 9 + 16 + 16 + 12 + 5 = 79

Code = 79 - 1 = 78
