SSC Selection Post - Matriculation Level - 26 June 2024 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q91

In a certain code language, ‘CURVED’ is coded as ‘FWSUCA’ and ‘LONDON’ is coded as ‘OQOCMK’. How will ‘SIMPLE’ be coded in the same language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. VKNOJB.

‘CURVED’ is coded as ‘FWSUCA’

C + 3 = F; U + 2 = W; R + 1 = S; V - 1 = U; E - 2 = C; D - 3 = A

‘LONDON’ is coded as ‘OQOCMK’

L + 3 = O; O + 2 = Q; N + 1 = O; D - 1 = C; O - 2 = M; N - 3 = K

Similarly, ‘SIMPLE’ will be coded:

S + 3 = V; I + 2 = K; M + 1 = N; P - 1 = O; L - 2 = J; E - 3 = B
