SSC CGL 2022 PYQ — Question 80

SSC CGL - 20 April 2022 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q80

In a certain code language, ‘NORMAL’ is written as ‘DIPKRO’ and ‘SOUND’ is written as ‘GKRPX’. How will ‘CLUSTER’ be written in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. FBOOVQX.

The logic used here is:

‘NORMAL’ is written as ‘DIPKRO’ 

First, arrange the word in alphabetical order.

NORMAL =  ALMNOR

A + 3 = D

L - 3 = I

M + 3 = P

N - 3 = K

O + 3 = R

R - 3 = 15

Similarly;

Code for the word CLUSTER:

CLUSTER = CELRSTU

C + 3 = F

E - 3 = B

L + 3 = O

R - 3 = O

S + 3 = V

T - 3 = Q

U + 3 = X

Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.
