SSC Selection Post 2024 Question Paper (26-Jun-2024) (Shift-4)
The correct answer is
47

Let's break down the problem to find out the logic used to code the words in the given language.

Step 1: Analyze the given codes

We are given that:

  • MET is coded as 32
  • MOW is coded as 45

We need to find a pattern or a rule that applies to these codes.

Step 2: Convert letters to positions in the alphabet

For each letter in the word, replace it with its respective position in the English alphabet:

  • M = 13
  • E = 5
  • T = 20
  • O = 15
  • W = 23
  • R = 18
  • U = 21
  • N = 14

Step 3: Verify pattern for the given words

Let's sum up the positions for the words:

  • MET: 13 + 5 + 20 = 38
  • It is given as 32, so the code equals the sum minus 6: 38 - 6 = 32.
  • MOW: 13 + 15 + 23 = 51
  • It is given as 45, so the code equals the sum minus 6: 51 - 6 = 45.

Step 4: Apply the same rule to find the code for RUN

Calculate the positions for the letters in RUN:

  • RUN: 18 + 21 + 14 = 53
  • The code will be: 53 - 6 = 47.

Conclusion:

Thus, the code for RUN is 47.
