6.In a Code language CAT is written as BDZBSU, 9.If KIND is written as 20 and MOBILE is coded
How will LION be written in that Language. as 42, then how will you write PRIMARY in the
A. NMHPJMN B. KMHPDPMO same language?
C. KMHJNPMO D. PMHJNPNO A. 42 B. 36
Sol: C. 56 D. 78
Here we can see that each alphabet is replaced Sol:
with its former and latter alphabet. “c” is coded The logic behind the code language is - number
as “BD” , ‘A’ Is coded as ‘ZB’ and so on. of letters in the word multiplied by its succeeding
Therefore, ‘LION’ will be coded as ‘KMHJNPMO’. number.
Hence, option (C) is the correct answer. i.e.
In KIND - there are 4 letters
7.In a code language, ASTRONOMY is written as So, 4 × 5 = 20
SARTPONYM. How will FENUGREEK be written as Similarly,
in that language? MOBILE = 6 × 7 = 42
A. UNEFGKEER B. EFUNFERKE So,
C. EFUNHKEER D. EFUNHERKE PRIMARY = 7 × 8 = 56
Sol: Hence, option C is the correct answer.
The pattern is:
10.In a code language. PASTEUR is coded as
TPRUASE. How would SEVENTY be coded in that
language?

11.If EFMIJ means DELHI, then find the last Sol:
letter of IQBOS after decoding –
A. T B. R
C. K D. M
Sol: E (-1) = D
Considering the place value of letters we get,
F (-1) = E
As,
M (-1) = L
B(2),O(15),L(12),L(12),Y(25),W(23),O(15),O(15),
I (-1) = H
D(4)
J (-1) = I
⇒ B(2),O(1+5),L(1+2),L(1+2),Y(2+5),W(2+3),
Similarly,
O(1+5),O(1+5),D(4)
I (-1) = H
⇒263375664 and
Q (-1) = P
H(8),O(15), L(12),Y(25),W(23),O(15),O(15),D(4)
B (-1) = A
⇒ H(8),O(1+5), L(1+2),Y(2+5),W(2+3),O(1+5),
O (-1) = N
O(1+5),D(4)
S (-1) = R
⇒ 86375664
Thus, R is the last letter.
Similarly, TOLLYWOD is coded as
Hence, option B is the correct answer.
T(20),O(15),L(12),L(12),Y(25),W(23),O(15), D(4)
⇒ T(2+0),O(1+5),L(1+2),L(1+2),Y(2+5),
12.In a code language, DICTIONARY is written as
W(2+3),O(1+5), D(4)
ITCIDYRANO. How will CAMBRIDGES be written
⇒ 26337564
in that language?
Hence, option D is the correct answer.
A. RMABCSEGDI B. RMBAESCGDI
C. RMBACSEIDG D. RBMACSEGDI
14.If HUSBAND = 10, ANIMAL = 9, then
Sol:
HOUSEHOLD will be written as?
Logic- write the first half in reverse order and
A. 12 B. 22
second half also in reverse order to get the
C. 28 D. 26
required code.
Sol: In this question, we show that-
As,
Number of words in HUSBAND - 7
DICTI ONARY is written as ITCID YRANO
(7+3) = 10
Similarly, CAMBR IDGES is written as RBMAC
Number of words in ANIMAL - 6
SEGDI
(6+3) = 9
Hence, option D is the correct answer.
Similarly,
Number of words in HOUSEHOLD - 9
13.If in some language BOLLYWOOD is coded as
(9+3) = 12
“263375664” and HOLYWOOD is coded as
So ? = 12
“86375664”, then what is the code for
So the correct answer is option A.
TOLLYWOD?
A. 26564337 B. 33756426
15.If 9 * 7 * 5 = 72975 and 4 * 8 * 6 = 6486 then
C. 26375364 D. 26337564
find 7 * 3 * 5 = ?
E. 27564633
A. 82559 B. 34335
C. 14527 D. 47865
4
Sol:
Logic : In (9 * 7 * 5) is operated as the last two Sol:
numbers are written as it is, and the first number
is cubed. Like.
93 = 729 and 75 → 72975
In (4 * 8 * 6)
43 = 64 and 86 → 6486
In (7 * 3 * 5)
73 = 343 and 35 → 34335 Similarly,
Hence, option B is the correct answer.
5
Thus BUYER is coded as FVCFV.
Hence, option C is the correct answer.
6
MAHABHARAT=TARAHBAHAM
Hence, the correct answer is option A. S (-1) = R
I (-1) = H
26.In a certain code language, ORIENTAL is S (-1) = R
written as MBUOFJSP. How is COWARDLY T (-1) = S
written in that code language? E (-1) = D
A. XKCQBXPD B. XLBQCXPD R (-1) = Q
C. ZMESDPXB D. None of these Similarly
Sol: U (-1) = T
Logic: The letters of the word are written in N (-1)= M
reverse order and then each letter is moved one C (-1) = B
step forward to obtain the code. L (-1) = K
ORIENTAL ⇔ LATNEIRO E (-1) = D
Now, Hence, option A is the correct answer.
L (+1) → M
A (+1) → B 28.In a certain code, PRODUCTIONS is written as
T (+1) → U QQPCVBUHPMT. How is ORIENTATION written
N (+1) → O in that code?
E (+1) → F A. PQJDOSBSJNO B. PQJDOUBUJPO
I(+1) → J C. PSJFOVBSJNO D. NESHFMVBSJNO
R (+1) → S Sol:
O (+1) → P Logic: The first, third, fifth, seventh, ninth and
Similarly, eleventh letters in the word are each moved one
COWARDLY ⇔ YLDRAWOC step forward, the second, fourth, sixth, eighth
Now, and tenth letters are each moved one step
Y (+1) → Z backward.
L (+1) → M So, PRODUCTION - QQPCVBUHPMT
D (+1) → E Similarly,
R (+1) → S ORIENTATION - PQJDOSBSJNO
A (+1) → B Hence, option A is the correct answer.
W(+1) → X
O (+1) → P 29.In a certain code language, COMPUTRONE is
C (+1) → D written as PMOCTUENOR. How is ADVANTAGES
So, COWARDLY is coded as ZMESBXPD (which is written in that code?
not given in any option). A. SEGATNAVAD B. AVDATNSEGA
Hence, option D is the correct answer. C. AVDATASEGN D. NAVDASEGAT
Sol: Logic: The first four letters, the middle two
27.In a certain code SISTER is written as RHRSDQ. letters and the last four letters of the word are
How is UNCLE written in that code? written in a reverse order to form the code.
A. TMBKD B. TBMKD COMPUTRONE is written as:-
C. TVBOD D. TMKBD COMP ⇒ PMOC
Sol: LOGIC: Each letter in the word is moved one UT ⇒ TU
step backward to obtain the corresponding RONE ⇒ ENOR
letter of the code.
7
So, "COMPUTRONE" is coded as A × 2 = 1 × 2 = 2 which is the place value of letter
"PMOCTUENOR". B.
Similarly, Similarly,
ADVANTAGES is written as:- DEKA is coded as:
ADVA ⇒ AVDA D × 2 = 4 × 2 = 8 which is the place value of letter
NT ⇒ TN H.
AGES ⇒ SEGA E × 2 = 5 × 2 = 10 which is the place value of letter
So, "ADVANTAGES" is coded as "AVDATNSEGA". J.
Hence, option B is the correct answer. K × 2 = 11 × 2 = 22 which is the place value of
letter V.
30.If NASCENT is written as 2734526, how is A × 2 = 1 × 2 = 2 which is the place value of letter
SENTENCE written in that code? B.
A. 35265235 B. 35256245 So, DEKA is coded as HJVB.
C. 35265245 D. 35256275 Hence, option C is the correct answer.
Sol: NASCENT → 2734526,
N → 2; A → 7; S → 3; C → 4; E → 5; N → 2; T → 6 33.In a code language ‘FORGE’ is written as
Using the number codes of the above letters we ‘FPTJI’; how should ‘CULPRIT’ be written in the
get: same code?
SENTENCE A. CVNSVNZ B. CSJNPGR
S → 3; E → 5; N → 2; T → 6; E → 5; N → 2; C → 4; C. EVMQSTU D. CXOSULW
E→5 Sol: Pattern is:
So, SENTENCE → 35265245
Hence, option C is the correct answer.
8
N+6=T
D+7=K
Similarly, CANDLE = EDRIRL
Hence, option C is the correct answer.
Sol:
Similarly
Hence, option C is the correct answer.

39.In a certain code language, "FRIEND" is 42.In a certain code, ROSE is written
written as "IULHQG". How is "ENEMY" written in as #43$ and FIRST is written as 5*#37. How
that code language? is STORE written in that code?
A. HQHPB B. HQHPA A. 473$# B. 473#$
C. HQEMY D. HQHPG C. 374#$ D. 347#$
Sol: F + 3 = I Sol:
R+3=U
I + 3= L
E+3=H
N+3=Q
D+3=G
Similarly,
E + 3= H
N+3=Q
E + 3= H
M+3=P
Y + 3= B Using the above letter codes we get,
Hence, option A is the correct response.
