Q-15) In a certain code 'RAIN' is written as 'TCKP'. How is 'CLOUD' written in that code?
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
As, R + 2 = T, A + 2 = C, 1 + 2 = K, N + 2 = P
Therefore, RAIN ⇒ TCKP
Similarly, C + 2 = E, L + 2 = N, O + 2 = Q, U + 2 = W, D + 2 = F
Therefore, CLOUD ⇒ ENQWF

(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
Directions:
In a certain code, the letters of English alphabet (consonants and vowels) are coded as given for some words. The numeric code for each letter is given in bracket under coded form and corresponds to the letter in the word in the same serial order. Study the coded forms of the given words and find out the rules for their codification.
Applying those rules, answer the questions that follow in two sets.
Word | Coded Form |
SEAT | [5] [15] [15] [5] |
CUT | [5] [10] [5] |
ONE | [0] [5] [0] |
DEEP | [5] [20] [20] [5] |
POUR | [5] [15] [15] [5] |
PIN | [5] [10] [5] |
NONE | [5] [25] [20] [5] |
BOOK | [5] [20] [20] [5] |
OPEN | [30] [5] [30] [5] |
ATE | [0] [5] [0] |
PAGE | [5] [25] [5] [25] |
UNIT | [30] [5] [30] [5] |
In questions, find out the coded form of each of the given words.
Q-18) DOSE
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
(e)
[5] [25] [5] [25] by Rule VI
Q-19) f in a certain code language 'RAID' is written as '% # £ $' and 'RIPE' is written as '% £ @ ©', then how will 'DEAR' be written in that language?
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
As, R → % A → # I → £ D → $ and R → % I → £ P → @ E → ©
Similarly, D → $ E → © A → # R %
Therefore, DEAR ⇒ $ © # %
Q-20) If in a certain code language 'STAR' is written as '5 $ * 2', 'TORE' is written as '$ 3 2 @', then how will 'OATS' be written in that language?
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
(e)
AS, S → 5 T → $ A → * R → 2 and T → $ O → 3 R → 2 E → @
Similarly, o → 3 A → * T → $ S → 5
Therefore, OATS ⇒ 3 * $ 5
