If in a code, SCHOOL is written as TPIPNM, how is COLLEGE written?

Correct answer: B. DPMMFGF

  • A. DPMMFFE
  • B. DPMMFGF
  • C. DPMMFFH
  • D. DPNNFFE

Explanation

In the code conversion, each letter in 'SCHOOL' is altered by alternately adding and subtracting 1 from the ASCII value: S(+1)=T, C(-1)=B, H(+1)=I, O(-1)=N, O(+1)=P, L(-1)=M. Applying this alternating pattern to 'COLLEGE': C(+1)=D, O(-1)=N, L(+1)=M, L(-1)=K, E(+1)=F, G(-1)=F, E(+1)=F, results in 'DPMMFGF'. The other options deviate from this alternating pattern at various points, leading to incorrect results.

About Logical Problems

Logical problems present several conditions about people, objects, events or choices and require their possible arrangements to be tested. They cover constraint-based reasoning, rankings, matching, grouping, scheduling and elimination, with attention to the difference between a complete solution and a possibility that merely satisfies one condition.
