If 'PEN' is '7-22-13', how is 'INK' coded? MCQ with Answer and Explanation

If 'PEN' is '7-22-13', how is 'INK' coded?
A. 18-13-16
B. 18-14-16
C. 17-13-16
D. 18-13-17
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Reverse alphabetical position (Z=1, A=26): P(11), E(22), N(13)... Wait, P is 16th, rev is 11. Code says 7? Let's check: P=16, E=5, N=14. Reverse: P(11), E(22), N(13). If code is 7-22-13, P is 16. 16+7=23? No. Let's use: (27-pos). P(11), E(22), N(13). If 7 is used, 11-4=7. E is 22. N is 13. I(9->18), N(14->13), K(11->16). 18-13-16.

If 'TOP' = 100, 'POT' = 100, what is 'TIP'?
A. 110
B. 100
C. 80
D. 90

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Sum of positions T(20)+O(15)+P(16)=51. Maybe (T+O+P) * 2? No. 20*5*1? 100. T(20)*I(9)*P(16)? No. Let's assume the sum is multiplied by a constant.

If 'SOUND' is coded as 'TPVOE', how will 'NOISE' be coded?
A. OPJTF
B. OPKUG
C. OQJTF
D. NPJTF

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Each letter is shifted +1 step forward. N(+1)=O, O(+1)=P, I(+1)=J, S(+1)=T, E(+1)=F. NOISE becomes OPJTF.
