SSC CGL - 19 April 2022 - Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q95

In a certain code language, ‘GALLERY’ is written as ‘1422424103650’. How will ‘NOSTALGIA’ be written in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e 2830384022414182.

The logic used here is:

‘GALLERY’ is written as ‘1422424103650’

G = 7 × 2 = 14

A = 1 × 2 = 2

L = 12 × 2 = 24

L = 12 × 2 = 24

E = 5 × 2 = 10

R = 18 × 2 = 36

Y = 25 × 2 = 50

Similarly;

Code for the word NOSTALGIA:

N = 14 × 2 = 28

O = 15 × 2 = 30

S = 19 × 2 = 38

T = 20 × 2 = 40

A = 1 × 2 = 2

L = 12 × 2 = 24

G = 7 × 2 = 14

I = 9 × 2 = 18

A = 1 × 2 = 2

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
