SSC Stenographer - 18 Nov 2022 - Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q195

In a certain code language, ‘MOUSE’ is written as ‘62’, and ‘SHEEP’ is written as ‘82’. How will ‘PIG’ be written in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 49.

The logic used here is:

'MOUSE’ is written as ‘62’

Opposite of M = N = 14

Opposite of O = L = 12

Opposite of U = F = 6

Opposite of S = H = 8

Opposite of E = V = 22

MOUSE = 14 + 12 + 6 + 8 + 22 = 62

‘SHEEP’ is written as ‘82’

Opposite of S = H = 8

Opposite of H = S = 19

Opposite of E = V = 22

Opposite of E = V = 22

Opposite of P = K = 11

SHEEP = 8 + 18 + 22 + 22 + 11 = 82

Similarly;

Code for the word PIG:

Opposite of P = K = 11

Opposite of I = R = 18

Opposite of G = T = 20

MOUSE = 14 + 18 + 20 = 49

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
