SSC GD 2021 PYQ — Question 85

SSC GD Constable (English) - 17th November 2021 Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q85

In a certain code language, COACH is coded as 90, and POST is coded as 210. How will NOISE be coded in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 186.

The logic used here is:

COACH is coded as 90

COACH = 3 + 15 + 1 + 3 + 8 = 30 × 3 = 90

POST is coded as 210

POST = 16 + 15 + 19 + 20 = 70 × 3 = 210

Similarly,

Code for the word NOISE:

NOISE = 14 + 15 + 9 + 19 + 5 = 62 × 3 = 186

Hence, 186 is the correct answer.
