SSC Selection Post - Matriculation Level 2022 - 4 Feb 2022 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q88

In a certain code language, ‘UNITED’ is coded as ‘89’ and ‘SHOP’ is coded as ‘50’. How will ‘TRANSIT’ be coded in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e., 88.

Logic: The Sum of the place value of the opposite of the letters in the word

UNITED → FMRGVW → 6 + 13 + 18 + 7 + 22 + 23 = 89

SHOP → HSLK → 8 + 19 + 12 + 11 = 50

Similarly, 

TRANSIT → GIZMHRG → 7 + 9 + 26 + 13 + 8 + 18 + 7 = 88
