SSC CPO 2020 PYQ — Question 176

SSC CPO - 23 Nov 2020 - Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q176

In a code language, 'CLARITY' is written as '176'. How will 'FROZEN' be written in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 168

The logic used here is:

'CLARITY' is written as '176'

CLARITY = 3 + 12 + 1 + 18 + 9 + 20 + 25 = 88 × Number of vowels in the word = 88 × 2 = 176

Similarly,

Code for the word FROZEN:

FROZEN = 6 + 18 + 15 + 26 + 5 + 14 = 84 ×  Number of vowels in the word = 84 × 2 = 168

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
