 QUESTION
In a certain code language
‘given time simple plan’ was written as
‘@E4 &N4 %N5 #E6’
‘tired solution plant great’ was written as
‘#N8 @D5 %T5 &T5’
‘sick point good turn’ was written as
‘#K4 %D4 @N4 &T5’
‘garden sister phone team’ was written as
‘&E5 #R6 %N6 @M4’
 EXPLANATION
1. What will be the code for ‘translate’?
#E8 @E9 @E8
#T9 #T8

2. What will be the code for ‘plan’?

%N5#E6 @E4 &N4
%N5 None of these

3. What does ‘%D4’ stands for?

Sick turn point
Good None of these
 EXPLANATION
Answer 1: B
Step I: First count the alphabets in the word ‘translate’ which is 9, put 9 at the end.
Step II: Put the last alphabet of ‘translate’ before the digit 9 so now the code is E9 till now.
Step III: As observed above in all phrases, the alphabet ‘t’ is represented by the code ‘@’.
So now put ‘@’ at the beginning of the code so the answer is – @E9 that is option B.
Answer 2: C
Code for the word ‘plan’ –
Step I: First count the alphabets in the word ‘Plan’ which is 4, put 4 at the end.
Step II: Put the last alphabet of ‘plan’ before the digit 4 so now the code is N4 till now
Step III: As observed above in all phrase the alphabet ‘p’ is represented by the code ‘&’. So
now put ‘&’ at the beginning of the code so the answer is – &N4 that is option C.
Answer 3: D
The decoded word for ‘%D4’
Step I: The last number is 4, therefore, the word consists of 4 words ‘_ _ _ _’.
Step II: The Middle code defines the last alphabet of the word which is ‘D’ so put the last
alphabet of the word as d, so now the word is ‘_ _ _ d’ till now.
Step III: As observed above in all phrase the code ‘%’ is used to represent the alphabet ‘G’.
So now put ‘G’ at the beginning of the word so the word is – ‘G _ _ d’ which matches
option d, so the word is Good, option D.
 QUESTION
• In a certain code, NEWYORK is written as
111, how is NEWJERSEY written in that
code?
 EXPLANATION
• In NEWYORK
N = 14, E = 5, W = 23, Y = 25, O = 15, R = 18,
K = 11
Total = 14 + 5 + 23 + 25 + 15 + 18 + 11 = 111
In NEWJERSEY
Total = 14 + 5 + 23 + 10 + 5 + 18 + 19 + 5 +
25
= 124
 QUESTION
• In a certain code, HARYANA is written as
8197151, how is DELHI written in that
code?
 EXPLANATION
• We used the number of alphabets here.
H=8
A=1
R = 18 = 1+8 = 9
Y = 25 = 2+5 = 7
For DELHI
D=4
E=5
L = 12 = 1+2 = 3
H=8
I=9
Hence, DELHI is written as 45389
