SSC Selection Post - Matriculation Level 2020 - 9 Nov 2020 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q93

In a code language, if THAT is written as 98, then how will CHANGE be written in the same language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2, i.e., 76.

Logic: Add all the place values of letters ×\times 2

THAT is written as 98

T ⇔ 20, H ⇔ 8, A ⇔ 1, T ⇔ 20

20 + 8 + 1 + 20 = 49 → 49 ×\times 2 = 98

Similarly, CHANGE is written as 76

C ⇔ 3, H ⇔ 8, A ⇔ 1, N ⇔ 14, G ⇔ 7, E ⇔ 5

3 + 8 +  1 +  14 +  7 +  5 = 38 → 38 ×\times 2 = 76
