SSC GD 2024 PYQ — Question 66

SSC GD Const (English) - 22 Feb 2024 Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q66

In a certain code language. 'LEAVE' is coded as '42", "TEAM' is coded as '36'. What is the code for "OFFER' code language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 47

Logic: Sum of the positional value of all the letters - 3

'LEAVE' is coded as '42'

(12 + 5 + 1 + 22 + 5) - 3 = 42

'TEAM' is coded as '36'

(20 + 5 + 1 + 13) - 3 = 36

Similarly, for OFFER

(15 + 6 + 6 + 5 + 18) - 3 = 47
