SSC GD Constable (English) - 2 Feb 2023 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q77

In a certain code language, ‘DEVOUR’ is written as ‘WGEQFT’, and ‘VARIED’ is written as ‘ECIKVF’. How will ‘BLANKET’ be written in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. YNZPPGG.

The logic used here is:

‘DEVOUR’ is written as ‘WGEQFT’

Opposite of D = W

E + 2 = G

Opposite of V = E

O + 2 = Q

Opposite of U = F

R + 2 = T

‘VARIED’ is written as ‘ECIKVF’

Opposite of V = E

A + 2 = C

Opposite of R = I

I + 2 = K

Opposite of E = V

D + 2 = F

Similarly;

Code for the word BLANKET:

Opposite of B = Y

L + 2 = N

Opposite of A = Z

N + 2 = P

Opposite of K = P

E + 2 = G

Opposite of T = G

Hence, YNZPPGG is the correct answer.
