SSC CHSL - 15th October 2020 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q90

In a certain code language, TIFFIN is coded as 67 and BOX is coded as 44. How will CARDBOARD be coded as in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e 69

 Understanding   Application 

The logic used here is the sum of all corresponding values of letters and 3.

TIFFIN: 20 + 9 + 6 + 6 + 9 + 14 + 3 = 67

BOX: 2 + 15 + 24 + 3 = 44

The code for the word CARDBOARD is 69.

CARDBOARD: 3 + 1 + 18 + 4 + 2 + 15 + 1 + 18 + 4 + 3 = 69

Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.
