SSC GD Constable (English) - 16 Jan 2023 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q62

In a certain code the word ‘BARK’ is numerically coded as '5132'. The word ‘BEND’ is numerically coded as '5749'. How is the word ‘BEARD’ numerically coded in the same code?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 57139.

The logic used here is:

‘BARK’ is numerically coded as 5132

B = 5

A = 1

R = 3

K = 2

‘BEND’ is numerically coded as 5749

B = 5

E = 7

N = 4

D = 9

Similarly;

Code for the word BEARD:

B = 5

E = 7

A = 1

R = 3

D = 9

Hence, the correct answer is 57139.
