SSC CHSL 2022 PYQ — Question 84

SSC CHSL - 30 May 2022 - Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q84

In a certain code language, 'GRAPES' is written as 'EPYNCQ', and ‘ROSE’ is written as ‘PMQC’. How will 'SAGE' be written in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. QYEC.

The logic used here is:

'GRAPES' is written as 'EPYNCQ'

G - 2 = E

R - 2 = P

A - 2 = Y

P - 2 = N

E - 2 = C

S -2 = Q

‘ROSE’ is written as ‘PMQC’

R - 2 = P

O - 2 = M

S - 2 = Q

E - 2 = C

Similarly;

Code for the word SAGE:

S - 2 = Q

A - 2 = Y

G - 2 = E

E - 2 = C

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
