SSC CGL - 06 Dec 2022 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q79

In a certain code language, 'BELL’ is coded as '111141', and 'HEAR' is coded as '172647'. How will 'MIKE' be coded in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 410812.

First, reverse the code.

BELL = 141111 = 111141

B - 1 = 1, E - 1 = 4, L - 1 = 11, L - 1 = 11

Similarly; M - 1 = 12, I - 1 = 8, K - 1 = 10, E - 1 = 4

MIKE = 410812
