Instruction for Q.1 to Q.2
Direction: Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given
below it:
Digits in the numbers are to be coded as follows:
Digit_[7 3 5 0 2 1 6 4 9 8
Code [N H L T E D R a 6 Pp
Conditions:
Following conditions are to be observed:
i) If the first digit is even and the last digit is odd they are to be coded as $ and @
respectively.
ii) If the first digit is odd and the last digit is even they are to be coded as # and &
respectively.
il) If0 is preceded as well as followed by an odd digit then 0 is to be coded as *
iv) If 0 is preceded as well as followed by even digit then 0 is to be coded as 1.
V) is not considered as either even or odd
Now, based on the above information find out which of the combinations is the coded
form in each question.
Q.1) What will be the code for 1375490?
[a] DHNLQGT
[b] HHNLQGE
[ce] DHNLQG*
[d] BHNLQG#practice Que
[e] DHNLQG&
Solution:(a]
Here, none of the conditions is applicable. So, the required code for 1375490 is
DHNLQGT.
Q.2) QLP:RNT is the code for which of the following numbers?
[a] 4570680
[b] 4780650
[c] 6580470
[a] 4580670
[e] Data inadequate
Solution:[4]
Q.L.P,R,N, Tare the codes for 4, 5, 8, 6, 7 and 0 respectively.
+ is the code for 0 which is both preceded as well as followed by an even number.
Instruction for Q.3 to Q.5
Directions: In each of the following questions given below, a word or group of words
is given followed by four combinations of letters and digits labeled as A, B, C and D.
You have to find out which of the following four combinations correctly represents the
word or group of words or vice-versa based on the codes and the conditions given
below. If none of the combinations match, choose ‘None of these’ as your answer.
Ina certain code language,
“Honesty Is Best Policy’ is written as ‘R1R XSK X8S S3Y’
‘Better Late Than Never’ is written 'D30 QSY Q6M M3G’
‘Curiosity Killed The Cat' is written as ‘X10X D4G C5P S4x'
‘Always Doubt Your Instinct’ is written as ‘S7R Q3B S6W R5Z’
Q.3) What is the code of the word ‘NEVER’?
[a] M3G
[b] Q6M.
[c] Q5Ypractice Que
[a] 030
[e] None of these
Solution:[b]
In the code given for each word,
First letter of the code ~ Preceding letter to the last letter of the respective word
For example, last letter of the word ‘Honesty’ is ‘Y’ and we know that ‘X’ precedes ‘Y'
in alphabetical series. Hence, the code will be ‘X’.
The number in the code can be obtained by subtracting 1 from the word which has
even number of letters and adding 1 to the word which has odd number of letters.
For example, number of letters in ‘Honesty’ are 7 which is an odd number. So, we will
add 1 to 7 which equals to 8. Hence, the number in the code will be 8
The last letter of the code ~ The opposite letter of the first letter of the given word, in
reverse alphabetical order.
For example, the first letter of the word ‘Honesty’ is 'H’ and the opposite of ‘H’ in
reverse alphabetical order is 'S'. Hence, the last letter in the code will be 'S’
The code of the word ‘NEVER’ is ‘Q6M’.
Q.4) What is the code of the word ‘Success’?
[a] R8H
[b] R7H
[c] Bes
[cd] mss
[e] None of these
Solution-[a]
In the code given for each word,
First letter of the code ~ Preceding letter to the last letter of the respective word
Last letter of the word ‘Success’ is ‘S' and we know that ‘R’ precedes 'S’ in
alphabetical series, Hence, the code will be ‘R’.
The number in the code can be obtained by subtracting 1 from the word which has
even number of letters and adding 1 to the word which has odd number of letters.Que
Number of letters in ‘Success' are 7 which is an odd number. So, we will add 1 to 7
which equals to 8. Hence, the number in the code will be 8.
The last letter of the code -- The opposite letter of the first letter of the given word, in
reverse alphabetical order
For example, the first letter of the word ‘Success’ is ‘S' and the opposite of ‘S' in
reverse alphabetical order is ‘H’. Hence, the last letter in the code will be ‘H’.
The code of word ‘Success’ is 'R8H'
Q.5) 'D4G 'is the code for which of the following word?
[a] Curiosity
[b) Killed
[c] The
[a] Cat
[e] None of these
Solution: [c]
In the code given for each word,
First letter of the code ~ Preceding letter to the last letter of the respective word
For example, last letter of the word ‘Honesty’ is ‘Y' and we know that ‘X’ precedes ‘Y'
in alphabetical series. Hence, the code will be ‘X’.
The number in the code can be obtained by subtracting 1 from the word which has
even number of letters and adding 1 to the word which has odd number of letters.
For example, number of lettersin ‘Honesty’ are 7 which is an odd number. So, we will
add 1 to 7 which equals to 8, Hence, the number in the code will be 8.
The last letter of the code — The opposite letter of the first letter of the given word, in
reverse alphabetical order
For example, the first letter of the word ‘Honesty’ is 'H' and the opposite of ‘H! in
reverse alphabetical order is 'S'. Hence, the last letter in the code will be ‘S’.
"DAG is the code of the word ‘The’.
