This question was previously asked in
SSC CGL 2018 (Tier 2) Statistics Previous Year Paper (22-feb-2018)
The correct answer is

185199714

Understanding the Code Language Pattern

The question asks us to decipher a code language where the word CLIMAX is represented by the number 312913124. We need to find the corresponding code for the word RESIGN using the same pattern.

Identifying the Letter-to-Number Mapping

Let's examine the relationship between the letters in CLIMAX and its numerical code 312913124. The most common method in such problems is mapping letters to their positions in the English alphabet (A=1, B=2, C=3, ...).

  • C is the 3rd letter of the alphabet.
  • L is the 12th letter of the alphabet.
  • I is the 9th letter of the alphabet.
  • M is the 13th letter of the alphabet.
  • A is the 1st letter of the alphabet.
  • X is the 24th letter of the alphabet.

If we concatenate these positional numbers, we get:

C $\rightarrow$ 3
L $\rightarrow$ 12
I $\rightarrow$ 9
M $\rightarrow$ 13
A $\rightarrow$ 1
X $\rightarrow$ 24

Concatenated result: 312913124 = 312913124.

This sequence exactly matches the code given for CLIMAX. Therefore, the coding rule is to replace each letter with its alphabetical position number and concatenate them.

Encoding the Word RESIGN

Now, let's apply this confirmed pattern to the word RESIGN.

We need to find the alphabetical position for each letter in RESIGN:

  • R is the 18th letter.
  • E is the 5th letter.
  • S is the 19th letter.
  • I is the 9th letter.
  • G is the 7th letter.
  • N is the 14th letter.

Using LaTeX notation for the positions:

R $\rightarrow$ 18
E $\rightarrow$ 5
S $\rightarrow$ 19
I $\rightarrow$ 9
G $\rightarrow$ 7
N $\rightarrow$ 14

Concatenating these numbers sequentially, we get the code for RESIGN:

185199714 = 185199714.

Matching the Result with Options

The calculated code for RESIGN is 185199714. Let's compare this with the provided options:

  • Option 1: 185199713
  • Option 2: 195209714
  • Option 3: 185198614
  • Option 4: 185199714

Our calculated code, 185199714, perfectly matches Option 4.
