📆 November 16, 2024

Total Questions: 26

1. In a certain code language, ‘BLISS’ is written as ‘56’ and ‘FORD’ is written as ‘39’. How will ‘TENT’ be written in that language? [Graduate Level 01/08/2022 (Shift - 4)]

Correct Answer: (b) 55
Solution:Add the place value of the letters and then subtract the number of letters of the word from that.
BLISS → (B = 2), (L = 12), (I = 9), (S = 19), (S = 19)
⇒ (2 + 12 + 9 + 19 + 19) - 5 = 56
FORD → (F = 6), (O = 15), (R = 18), (D = 4)
⇒ (6 + 15 + 18 + 4) - 4 = 39
Similarly,

TENT → (T = 20), (E = 5), (N = 14), (T = 20)
⇒ (20 + 5 + 14 + 20) - 4 = 55

2. In a certain code language, ‘CAMERA’ is written as ‘242’, ‘BROKEN’ is written as ‘194’; how will ‘CENTRE’ be written in that language? [Graduate Level 01/08/2022 (Shift - 4)]

Correct Answer: (c) 194
Solution:

3. In a certain code language, ‘players like fitness’ is written as ‘ab ef op’, ‘fitness is good’ is written as ‘op xy uv’ and ‘players are good’ is written as ‘uv ef qr’. What is the code for the word ‘like’ in that language? [Graduate Level 01/08/2022 (Shift - 4)]

Correct Answer: (a) ab
Solution:

4. In a certain code language, ‘HOCKEY’ is written as ‘BNGXDJ’ and ‘BOXING’ is written as ‘WNAFMH’. How will ‘SPORTS’ be written in that language? [Graduate Level 01/08/2022 (Shift - 4)]

Correct Answer: (a) NORRSQ
Solution:

5. In a certain code language, ‘CATHOLIC’ is written as ‘79’, ‘AUDIENCE’ is written as ‘70’. How will ‘ASSEMBLY’ be written in that language? [Graduate Level 02/08/2022 (Shift - 3)]

Correct Answer: (d) 104
Solution:Add the place value of the letters of the given word and then add no. of letters.
CATHOLIC → (C = 3), (A = 1), (T = 20), (H = 8), (O = 15), (L = 12), (I = 9), (C = 3) and number of letters = 8
⇒ {(3 + 1 + 20 + 8 + 15 + 12 + 9 + 3) + 8} = 79

AUDIENCE → (A = 1), (U = 21), (D = 4), (I = 9), (E = 5), (N = 14), (C = 3), (E = 5) and number of letters = 8
⇒ {(1 + 21 + 4 + 9 + 5 + 14 + 3 + 5) + 8} = 70
Similarly,

ASSEMBLY → (A = 1), (S = 19), (S = 19), (E = 5), (M = 13), (B = 2), (L = 12), (Y = 25) and number of letters = 8
⇒ ((1 + 19 + 19 + 5 + 13 + 2 + 12 + 25) + 8} = 104

6. In a certain code language, ‘TRAIN’ is written as ‘PKCTV’ and ‘MESH’ is written as ‘JUGO’. How will ‘OMBRE’ be written in that language? [Graduate Level 02/08/2022 (Shift - 3)]

Correct Answer: (d) GTDOQ
Solution:

7. In a certain code language, ‘he loves children’ is written as ‘AA CC PP’, ‘children like candles’ is written as ‘ZZ PP QQ’ and ‘she loves candles’ is written as ‘QQ AA NN’. What is the code for the word ‘like’ in that language? [Graduate Level 02/08/2022 (Shift - 3)]

Correct Answer: (c) ZZ
Solution:

From 2nd line, we can clearly see that, Code for the word ‘like’ is ZZ.

8. In a certain code language, ‘CHOICE’ is written as ‘53’ and ‘CHARGE’ is written as ‘52’. How will ‘CHANCE’ be written in that language? [Graduate Level 02/08/2022 (Shift - 3)]

Correct Answer: (b) 44
Solution:Add the place value of the letters of the given words and then add +10 to get the code.
CHOICE → (C = 3), (H = 8), (O = 15), (I = 9), (C = 3), (E = 5)
⇒ (3 + 8 + 15 + 9 + 3 + 5) + 10 = 53

CHARGE → (C = 3), (H = 8), (A = 1), (R = 18), (G = 7), (E = 5)
⇒ (3 + 8 + 1 + 18 + 7 + 5) + 10 = 52

Similarly,

CHANCE → (C = 3), (H = 8), (A = 1), (N = 14), (C = 3), (E = 5)
⇒ (3 + 8 + 1 + 14 + 3 + 5) + 10 = 44

9. In a certain code language, ‘water is odourless’ is written as ‘34 56 78’, ‘air is colourless’ is written as ‘56 01 67’ and ‘water and air’ is written as ‘67 78 45’. What is the code for the word ‘odourless’ in that language? [Graduate Level 03/08/2022 (Shift - 3)]

Correct Answer: (d) 34
Solution:

From the above figure, we can clearly conclude that, Odourless stands for 34.

10. In a certain code language, ‘COSTLY’ is written as ‘470’ and ‘COFFEE’ is written as ‘200’. How will ‘CORNER’ be written in that language? [Graduate Level 03/08/2022 (Shift - 3)]

Correct Answer: (d) 365
Solution:Add the place value of the letters of the words and then multiply by 5 to get the code.
COSTLY→ (C = 3), (O = 15), (S = 19), (T = 20), (L = 12), (Y = 25)
⇒ (3 + 15 + 19 + 20 + 12 + 25) × 5 = 470

COFFEE → (C = 3), (O = 15), (F = 6), (F = 6), (E = 5), (E = 5)
⇒ (3 + 15 + 6 + 6 + 5 + 5) × 5 = 200
Similarly,

CORNER→ (C = 3), (O = 15), (R = 18), (N = 14), (E = 5), (R = 18)
⇒ (3 + 15 + 18 + 14 + 5 + 18) × 5 = 365
