SSC Stenographer 2022 PYQ — Question 168

SSC Stenographer - 17 Nov 2022 - Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q168

In a certain code language, 'MONEY' is coded as ‘72’, and ‘BILL’ is coded as ‘35’. How will 'TOKEN' be coded in that language? 

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 65.

The logic used here is:

'MONEY' is coded as ‘72’

MONEY = 13 + 15 + 14 + 5 + 25 = 72

‘BILL’ is coded as ‘35’

BILL = 2 + 9 + 12 + 12 = 35

Similarly;

Code for the word TOKEN:

TOKEN = 20 + 15 + 11 + 5 + 14 = 65

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
