Question 32
If the word ANGEL is coded as BOHFM , then what will be the third alphabet in the code for the word SAVAGE ?
To find the third alphabet in the code for the word SAVAGE using the coding pattern provided (ANGEL coded as BOHFM), you can apply the same pattern to each letter:
- A becomes B (shifted one letter forward).
- N becomes O (shifted one letter forward).
- G becomes H (shifted one letter forward).
- E becomes F (shifted one letter forward).
- L becomes M (shifted one letter forward).
Now, applying this pattern to the letters in SAVAGE:
- S becomes T (shifted one letter forward).
- A becomes B (shifted one letter forward).
- V becomes W (shifted one letter forward).
So, the third alphabet in the code for SAVAGE is "W."
The correct answer is option C: W.

Question 33
In a code language , COMPUTER is written as IVGFKNLX . How will TELEPHONE be written in that language ?
| Letter | A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M |
| Number | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 |
| Letter | N | O | P | Q | R | S | T | U | V | W | X | Y | Z |
| Number | 13 | 12 | 11 | 10 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 |
The pattern follows the table above.
- Each letter having an associate number.
- Each letter will be replace by the letter having the same value as the associated number.
- For example, C and X have the same number, that 3, so in place of C we write X
- After replacing the letters, then you mirror the entire product.
COMPUTER β XLNKFGVI β IVGFKNLX .
Similarly,
TELEPHONE β GVOVKSLMV β VMLSKVOVG
Thus the correct option is

Question 34
If AU = 21 and EGG = 245 , then how will you code BAKE ?
| Letter | A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M |
| Number | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 |
| Letter | N | O | P | Q | R | S | T | U | V | W | X | Y | Z |
| Number | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 | 25 | 26 |
The pattern goes as follows:
For AU:
A = 1, U = 21
1 x 21 = 21
For EGG:
E = 5, G = 7, G = 7
5 x 7 x 7 = 245
Similarly,
For BAKE:
B = 2, A = 1, k = 11, E = 5
2 x 1 x 11 x 5 = 110
Thus the correct option is C. 110

Question 35
In a code language , PICTURE is written as 16932021185 . How will FUNCTION be written in that language ?
| Letter | A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M |
| Number | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 |
| Letter | N | O | P | Q | R | S | T | U | V | W | X | Y | Z |
| Number | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 | 25 | 26 |
The pattern goes as follows:
To decode the given pattern:
PICTURE = 16932021185
It appears that each letter is assigned a numerical value based on its position in the alphabet and then these values are combined.
- P is the 16th letter.
- I is the 9th letter.
- C is the 3rd letter.
- T is the 20th letter.
- U is the 21st letter.
- R is the 18th letter.
- E is the 5th letter.
Now, let's apply the same pattern to FUNCTION:
- F is the 6th letter.
- U is the 21st letter.
- N is the 14th letter.
- C is the 3rd letter.
- T is the 20th letter.
- I is the 9th letter.
- O is the 15th letter.
- N is the 14th letter.
So, FUNCTION would be coded as 6211432091514.
The correct answer is option C: 6211432091514.

Question 37
If MASTER is coded as 26138402536 and GOVIND is coded as 142254481288, then how will BACKSPACE be coded ?
| Letter | A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M |
| Number | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 |
| Letter | Z | Y | X | W | V | U | T | S | R | Q | P | O | N |
| Number | 26 | 25 | 24 | 23 | 22 | 21 | 20 | 19 | 18 | 17 | 16 | 15 | 14 |
Here, the following pattern is used:
Vowel positional values are squared, while consonant positional values are multiplied by two.
For MASTER:
M = 13; 13 x 2 = 26
A = 1; 12 = 1
S = 19; 19 x 2 = 38
T = 20; 20 x 2 = 40
E = 5; 52 = 25
R = 18; 18 x 2 = 36
Thus MASTER = 26138402536
Similarly,
For GOVIND:
G = 7; 7 x 2 = 14
O = 15; 152 = 225
V = 22; 22 x 2 = 44
I = 9; 92 = 81
N = 14; 14 x 2 = 28
D = 4; 4 x 2 = 8
Thus GOVIND = 142254481288
Therefore:
For BACKSPACE
B = 2; 2 x 2 = 4
A = 1; 12 = 1
C = 3; 3 x 2 = 6
K = 11; 11 x 2 = 22
S = 19; 19 x 2 = 38
P = 16; 16 x 2 = 32
A = 1; 12 = 1
C = 3; 3 x 2 = 6
E = 5; 52 = 25
Thus we have 4162238321625
Option A. 4162238321625 is therefore the correct option.

In a certain code, SLUMBER is coded as PORPYHO. How will PURPOSE be written in the same coded language ?
| Letter | A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M |
| Number | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 |
| Letter | Z | Y | X | W | V | U | T | S | R | Q | P | O | N |
| Number | 26 | 25 | 24 | 23 | 22 | 21 | 20 | 19 | 18 | 17 | 16 | 15 | 14 |
Here, the following pattern is used:
The odd occurences takes 3 steps backward, while the even occurence take 3 steps forward.
Thus,
For SLUMBER:
S β -3 β P
L β +3 β O
U β -3 β R
M β +3 β P
B β -3 β Y
E β +3 β H
R β -3 β O
SLUMBER = PORPYHO.
For PURPOSE
P β -3 β M
U β +3 β X
R β -3 β O
P β +3 β S
O β -3 β L
S β +3 β V
E β -3 β B
PURPOSE = MXOSLVB
Therefore the correct option is B. MXOSLVB
