SSC GD 2023 PYQ — Question 68

SSC GD Constable (English) - 6 Feb 2023 - Shift 4 • Reasoning • Q68

In a certain code language, STAR is coded as 58, and ALARM is coded as 45. How will STAGE be coded in the same language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 52.

The logic used here is:

STAR is coded as 58

STAR = 19 + 20 + 1 + 18 = 58

ALARM is coded as 45

ALARM = 1 + 12 + 1 + 18 + 13 = 45

Similarly;

Code for the word STAGE:

STAGE = 19 + 20 + 1 + 7 + 5 = 52

Hence, 52 is the correct answer.
