SSC CGL - 5th March 2020 Shift 3 • Reasoning • Q97

In a certain code language, ‘FASTER’ is written as ‘CDPQHO’. How will ‘VIOLIN’ be written as in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e SLRILK

Understanding Application

‘FASTER’ is written as ‘CDPQHO’

Vowels are moved forward by 3 letters and consonants are moved backward by 3 letters.

F - 3 = C

A + 3 = D

S - 3 = P

T - 3 = Q

E + 3 = H

R - 3 = O

Similarly for VIOLIN,

V - 3 = S

I + 3 = L

O + 3 = R

L - 3 = I

I + 3 = L

N - 3 = K

Hence, the correct answer is SLRILK
