SSC CHSL - 2nd July 2019 - Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q87

In a code language, TABLEPADS is written as BADCYGAPJ. How will BACKSPACE be written as in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. DAIBJGAIY

Understanding Application  

Square of the alphabet which has a single digit place value, and

Sum of the digits in case of alphabets having two digits place value.

T = 20 = 2 + 0 = 2 (B)

A = 1 = 12 = 1 (A)

B = 2 = 22 = 4 (D)

L = 12 = 1+2 = 3 (C)

E = 5 = 52 = 25 (Y)

P = 16 = 1+6= 7 (G)

A = 1 = 12 = 1 (A)

D = 4 = 42 = 16 (P)

S = 19 = 1 + 9 = 10 (J)

So, TABLEPADS is written as BADCYGAPJ

Similarly,

BACKSPACE is written as DAIBJGAIY
