SSC Selection Post 2023 PYQ — Question 78

SSC Selection Post - Higher Secondary Level - 28 June 2023 - Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q78

In a certain code language, 'SUPER' is coded as '61' and 'COLOR' is coded as '77'. How will 'CENTER' be coded in that language?
 

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 103.

Logic: Sum of opposite letter's place value + no. of letters

'SUPER' is coded as '61' → (8 + 6 + 11 + 22 + 9) + 5 = 61

'COLOR' is coded as '77' → (24 + 12 + 15 + 12 + 9) + 5 = 77

Similarly, 'CENTER' will be coded as: → (24 + 22 + 13 + 7 + 22 + 9) + 6 = 103
