SSC Selection Post - Higher Secondary Level 2019 - 15 Oct 2019 • Reasoning • Q92

In code language, if 'LUCID' is coded as '33394', then how will 'FRANK' be coded in the same language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2, i.e., 69152.

Logic: Place value of letters and if there's any double-digit number in place, add both digits,

'LUCID' is coded as '33394'

L ⇔ 12 → 1 + 2 = 3, U ⇔ 21 → 2 + 1 = 3, C ⇔ 3, I ⇔ 9, D ⇔ 4

Similarly, 'FRANK' is coded as '69152'

F ⇔ 6, R ⇔ 18 → 1 + 8 = 9, A ⇔ 1, N ⇔ 14 → 1 + 4 = 5, K ⇔ 11 → 1 + 1 = 2
