SSC GD 2023 PYQ — Question 61

SSC GD Constable (English) - 17 Jan 2023 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q61

In a certain code language, ‘CLOAKED’ is written as ‘39’, and ‘FLANK’ is written as ‘32’. How will ‘FLOCKED’ be written in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 44.

CLOAKED = 3 + 12 + 15 + 1 + 11 + 5 + 4 = 51 

Code for the word CLOAKED = 51 - 12 = 39

Similarly; FLOCKED = 6 + 12 + 15 + 3 + 11 + 5 + 4 = 56

Code for the word FLOCKED = 56 - 12 = 44
