SSC CGL 2020 PYQ — Question 84

SSC CGL - 6th March 2020 Shift 3 • Reasoning • Q84

In a certain code language, 'NECTAR' is written as 'DFOSBU'. How will 'CARPET' be written as in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. SBDUFQ.

NEC/TAR → CEN/RAT

C + 1 = D; E + 1 = F; N + 1 = O;

R + 1 = S; A + 1 = B; T + 1 = U

→ DFOSBU

Similarly for CARPET:

CAR/PET → RAC/TEP

R + 1 = S; A + 1 = B; C + 1 = D;

T + 1 = U; E + 1 = F; P + 1 = Q

→ SBDUFQ

Hence, the correct answer is SBDUFQ.
