"In number coding, numerical code is assigned to the word or the alphabetical letters and candidates are required to analyze the codes as per the correlation between these numbers and letters. This correlation is based on certain pattern according to the position of letters in this English alphabet as per a set of given rules". Also learn all types of coding decoding topics in verbal reasoning section.

See the below given sample question for better understanding Letter-Number Coding Decoding.

If in a certain code language ‘PUT’ is written as ‘57’, then how will ‘BAT’ be written in that language?

1. 25
2. 60
3. 55
4. 23

Here, forward order letter positions are added, As

Similarly,

∴ BAT = 23.

If B = 2 and BAG = 10, then BOX =?     

1. 36
2. 39
3. 41
4. 52

As, B = 2,
and BAG = 2 + 1 + 7 = 10
Similarly, BOX = 2 + 15 + 24 = 41.

If PKROK is coded as 72962 and KRRPK as 29972, then how can NJMLZ be coded?       

1. 45176
2. 74314
3. 91592
4. 51430

According to the given code system, P is coded as 7, K as 2, R as 9 and O as 6. That means code of NKMLZ does not have either 7, 2, 9 or 6. Hence, required code will be 51430, which is in option (d) wiil be the correct answer.

If ‘GLOSSORY’ is coded as ‘97533562’ and ‘GEOGRAPHY’ is coded as ‘915968402’, then ‘GEOLOGY’ can be coded as   

1. 9156927
2. 9157592
3. 9057592
4. 9157591

As, GLOSSORY = 97533562, and GEOGRAPHY = 915968402.

From the above two, G = 9, E = 1, O = 5, L = 7, O = 5, G = 9, Y = 2.

∴ GEOLOGY = 9157592.
