Answers & Solutions:

1) Answer (E)

Word – ENGLISH

Pairs of letters which have as many letters between its two letters as there are between them in the English alphabets

= (E,G) , (G,I) , (N,L) , (E,I)

Thus, there are 4 such pairs.

=> Ans – (E)

2) Answer (D)

Among the things mentioned here, the only thing that grows underground is potato.

Here, potato is called ‘banana’

Thus, banana is grown underground.

=> Ans – (D)

3) Answer (B)

Word – ‘NEUTRAL’

There are 3 pairs of letters which have as many letters between them in the word as they have between them in the English alphabetical series.

= (E,A) , (U,T) , (N,R)

=> Ans – (B)

4) Answer (C)

Series : YS RM LH ? CA

The pattern followed for each letter in the pairs is :

1st letter : Y (-7 letters) = R (-6 letters) = L (-5 letters) = G (-4 letters) = C

2nd letter : S (-6 letters) = M (-5 letters) = H (-4 letters) = D (-3 letters) = A

Thus, missing term = GD

=> Ans – (C)

5) Answer (C)

‘TONIC’ is coded as ‘CINOT and ‘SCALE’ is coded as ‘ACELS’

The pattern followed is that the alphabets are arranged in ascending order within the word.

Thus, code for ‘PLANK’ = AKLNP

=> Ans – (C)

6) Answer (A)

Word – ‘BANGLE’

There are 4, i.e. more than three pairs of letters which have as many letters between them in the word as they have between them in the English alphabetical series.

= (B,A) , (A,E) , (N,L) , (G,E)

=> Ans – (A)

7) Answer (A)

PAPER is written as PERPA

The pattern followed is that the first half of the word is written at the end of the code and the second half is written at the start of the code.

Thus, code for SUB JECT is = JECT SUB

Similarly, for COUNCIL, ‘NCIL’ will be written at the beginning, and ‘COU’ at the end.

=> COUNCIL : NCILCOU

=> Ans – (A)

8) Answer (A)

Codes for each letter is given :

R -> 8
E -> @
M -> 7
A -> $
I -> %
N -> 6

Thus, REMAIN : 8@7$%6

=> Ans – (A)

9) Answer (E)

Codes for each letter is given :

B -> 8
F -> 6
Q -> 4
D -> 7
T -> 2
M -> 3
K -> 5

Thus, QKTBFM : 452863

=> Ans – (E)
