SSC Selection Post - Graduation Level 2019 - 15 Oct 2019 • Reasoning • Q92

In a code language, if 'SCENERY is coded as '3861028103650' then how will 'HUMID' be coded in the same language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2, i.e., 164226188.

Logic: Multiplied by 2 in every place value of all letters,

'SCENERY is coded as '3861028103650'

S ⇔ 19 × 2 = 38, C ⇔ 3 × 2 = 6, E ⇔ 5 × 2 = 10, N ⇔ 14 × 2 = 28, E ⇔ 5 × 2 = 10, R ⇔ 18 × 2 = 36, Y ⇔ 25 × 2 = 50

Similarly, 'HUMID' is coded as '164226188'

H ⇔ 8 × 2 = 16, U ⇔ 21 × 2 = 42, M ⇔ 13 × 2 = 26, I ⇔ 9 × 2 = 18, D ⇔ 4 × 2 = 8
