SSC Constable GD Paper 23 Feb 2024

Solution :

Sum of numerical values of the letters (where A=1, B=2, …, Z=26)

PAGES -> 16+1+7+5+19 =48;
Multiply by 4 -> 48×4=192

ABOVE -> 1+2+15+22+5 = 45
Multiply by 4 -> 45×4=180

PRIOR -> 16+18+9+15+18=76
Multiply by 4 -> 76×4=304

Therefore, PRIOR code is 304
