SSC MTS - 20 July 2022 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q92

Back to paper

In a certain code language, 'HALMST' is written as 'IZMLTS' and 'GEASTR' is written as 'HDBRUQ'. How will 'TRAILS' be written in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. UQBHMR

'HALMST' is written as 'IZMLTS' and 'GEASTR' is written as 'HDBRUQ'.

The logic used here is:

H + 1 = I, A - 1 = Z, L + 1 = M, M - 1 = L, S + 1 = T, T - 1 = S

G + 1 = H, E - 1 = D, A + 1 = B, S - 1 = R, T + 1 = U, R - 1 = Q

Similarly,

T + 1 = U, R - 1 = Q, A + 1 = B, I - 1 = H, L + 1 = M, S - 1 = R

So, 'TRAILS' will be written as 'UQBHMR'

Hence, option 4 is the correct option.
