SSC Selection Post 2022 PYQ — Question 96

SSC Selection Post - Matriculation Level - 05 Aug 2022 - Shift 3 • Reasoning • Q96

In a certain code language, ‘STOOL’ is written as ‘405’, and ‘SKY’ is written as ‘165’. How will ‘TABLE’ be written in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 200. 

Logic: Sum of place value of letter × No. of letters

STOOL → (19 + 20 + 15 +15 +12) × 5 = 81 × 5 = 405

SKY → (19 + 11 + 25) × 3 = 5 × 3 = 165

Similarly, TABLE → (20 + 1 + 2 + 12 + 5) × 5 = 40 × 5 = 200
