In a certain code language, ‘LAMP’ is coded as ‘IWJL’. What is the code for ‘LOGS’ in that code language?

a) IKDO
b) IKEO
c) IKDP
d) IJDO

SSC GD 20 Feb 2024 (Shift I)

Solution:

Code pattern:

Given: LAMP → IWJL

We need to understand the pattern for each letter shift:

1. L → I (L is 3 positions behind I)
2. A → W (A is 3 positions behind W)
3. M → J (M is 3 positions behind J)
4. P → L (P is 4 positions behind L)

Now, applying the same pattern to LOGS:

1. L → I (L is 3 positions behind I)
2. O → K (O is 4 positions behind K)
3. G → D (G is 3 positions behind D)
4. S → O (S is 4 positions behind O)

So, LOGS is coded as IKDO.
