SSC CPO 2022 PYQ — Question 171

The correct answer is option 1 i.e.  ${{113} \over 8}$.

VACCINE is written as ${{132} \over 7}$

Opposite of V = E(5)

Opposite of A = Z(26)

Opposite of C = X(24)

Opposite of C = X(24)

Opposite of I = R(18)

Opposite of N = M(13)

Opposite of E = V(22)

VACCINE = 5 + 26 + 24 + 24 + 18 + 13 + 22 = 132

Number of letters in the word VACCINE = 7

Code = 132/7

MASKS is written as ${{72} \over 5}$

Opposite of M = N(14)

Opposite of A = Z(26)

Opposite of S = H(8)

Opposite of K = P(16)

Opposite of S = H(8)

MASKS = 14 + 26 + 8 + 16 + 8 = 72

Number of letters in the word MASKS = 5

Code = 72/5

Similarly; Code for the word SANITIZE:

Opposite of S = H(8)

Opposite of A = Z(26)

Opposite of N = M(13)

Opposite of I = R(18)

Opposite of T = G(7)

Opposite of I = R(18)

Opposite of Z = A(1)

Opposite of E = V(22)

SANITIZE = 8 + 26 + 13 + 18 + 7 + 18 + 1 + 22  = 113

Number of letters in the word SANITIZE = 8

Code = 113/8

Hence,  ${{113} \over 8}$ is the correct answer.
