SSC CPO Tier I - 11th December 2019 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q190

In a code language, HONEY is written as G4M2X. How is STATUE written in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. RS1S52.

Understanding Application

Given: HONEY is written as G4M2X

The pattern followed here is:

The vowels are given number as- A = 1, E = 2, I = 3, O = 4, U = 5

And the remaining alphabets are decreased by 1.

H : H - 1 = G

O : 4

N : N - 1 = M

E : 2

Y : Y - 1 = X

Similarly, STATUE can be written as:

S : S - 1 = R

T : T - 1 = S

A : 1

T : T - 1 = S

U : 5

E : 2

Therefore, the correct answer is RS1S52.
