 CODING
Coding is a process of conversion of original word or sentence or
collection of character into some other form by following certain logic or rule.
The resultant is known as code. Coding - Decoding is an aid to check the
candidate’s ability to understand the logic that converts into code, a particular
message and to read the message.

TYPES OF CODING:

1. LETTER CODING
This is the code that is derived on the basis of alphabets. usually, the position of
alphabets is used. For example, let us see the following question.
Example 1: In some language, “EXAM” is coded as “FYBN”. In the same
language, how will we code “RESULT”?

A) SFTVMU
B) REPTUY
C) ERICCART
D) KYLEBROW

Answer: The first step is to detect the code. For that, we need to focus on the
word EXAM. The first letter E in code is F, similarly the code for X is Y, for A
it is B and for M it is N. Thus we see that in this language the alphabet is shifted
to one step to the front. Thus the code for R will be S and hence the correct
option here is A) SFTVMU.

2. NUMBER CODING
In a certain code, “Delhi is capital” is coded as “7 5 9”. The sentence “capital
are beautiful” is coded as “3 6 9”, and “Delhi is beautiful” is coded as “6 7 5”.
Also “Patna also capital‟ is coded as “9 2 4”. What is the code for “beautiful” in
this code?
A) 2
B) 4
C) 5
D) 6
E) 7

मुख्यमंत्री अभ्युदय योजना प्रकोष्ठ - उपाम 5

Answer: To solve codes like these remember the order of the numbers may be
anything. For example, in “Delhi is capital” and “Delhi is beautiful”, we can see
that the words “Delhi is” are common and thus we can see that capital is 9 and
beautiful is 6. Therefore, the correct option here is D) 6.

3. SYMBOL CODING

In the symbol coding, we use the symbols like “!@#$%^&*()_”, to

represent words or letters. These codes are then used to determine a code for the
words that are written down. Let us see an example.

Example: If “LESD” is written as “@ $ & # “, “NAC” is written as “%? * “,

how “CANDLES” is coded in the same way?
A) *&%#$&)
B) *?%&@$#
C) *&^$@()
D) ?@$@^%@&
Answer: In the code, we can see that the code for L is @. Building on to that we
can see that the option B) *?%&@$# is the correct option.

4. MISCELLANEOUS EXAMPLES
Example: In the following, a certain code is given. According to this code,
“before West to mailing” is written as “ad mi ja no”, “the West to Himalaya” is
written as “kujaig ad”. Also “mailing of the layout” is written as “be ku zo mi”
and “to should of changes” is written as “be Ii yaja”. Then what is the code for
“should”?

A) be B) Ii C) ya D) ja E) Data insufficient
Answer: To solve these types of questions, a table may come in handy. Check
for the two sentences that have the most number of similar words. Let us put all
the terms in the table and see if we can get the correct answer or not. Let us see
what “to” is coded as:

Important Rules About CODING-DECODING:

1. In these questions code values are given to a word in terms of letters. We
have to analyse the pattern of the example and follow that pattern to find the
answer.
2. Take the given pair.

मुख्यमंत्री अभ्युदय योजना प्रकोष्ठ - उपाम 6

3. Write the position of all letters in the given pair.
4. Try to find the relation between the letters of both part of pair.
5. Relation may be related in forward or backward order.
6. Implement the same relation on the given word for required answer.

मुख्यमंत्री अभ्युदय योजना प्रकोष्ठ - उपाम 7

 SYLLOGISM

Syllogism questions constitute a set of sentences and conclusions. The

candidates are required to understand the sentences and deduce a conclusion
from the assumed set of propositions. So, syllogism can simply be defined as a
typical argument that must be arrived at a conclusion through deductive
reasoning.
There are two methodologies, Venn Diagrams and analytical method to
solve the syllogism questions. The venn diagram method is preferred since,
finding the conclusions which follow the given statements logically become
easy and thus solving the related syllogism question becomes easy. Diagrams
are drawn on the basis of the sentences and then conclusions are drawn by
analysing the venn diagram. An example of solving syllogism questions using
venn diagrams is illustrated for easy understanding of the syllogism questions
and the application of venn diagram in them.
For example,
Question Statements:
(A) No door is dog.
(B) All the dogs are cats.
Conclusions:
(A) No door is cat.
(B) No cat is door.
(C) Some cats are dogs.
(D) All the cats are dogs.
Answer options:
1. Only (B) and (D)
2. Only (A) and (C)
3. Only (C) and (D)
4. Only (C)
5. All the four
Solution:
From the given question statements, two possible venn diagram can be made as,

मुख्यमंत्री अभ्युदय योजना प्रकोष्ठ - उपाम 8

So, answer option 4 i.e. only (C) is the correct option

1. Statements:
All the poets are goats. Some goats are trees.
Conclusions:
A. Some poets are trees.
B. Some trees are goats.

2. Statements:
Some mangoes are yellow. Some tixo are mangoes.
Conclusions:
A. Some mangoes are green.
B. Tixo is a yellow.
3. Statements:
Some ants are parrots. All the parrots are apples.
Conclusions:
A. All the apples are parrots.
B. Some ants are apples.

4. Statements:
Some pearls are jewels. Some jewels are ornaments.
Conclusions:
A. Some jewels are pearls.
B. Some ornaments are jewels.

 DIRECTION SENSE REASONING

The questions based on directions require the candidates to identifying the

direction of an individual or shadow from a set of statements. Some important
points are given which can help to understand and solve the related question
easily.
 Know about the Directions Thoroughly
In general, there are four main directions i.e. North, South, East and West.
Apart from these four, there are four additional directions derived from the main
ones. They are called North-East, North-West, South-East and South-West. A
chart is given below for reference.
Direction Chart:

Direction Questions: Example 1

A is standing on the east of B who is standing in the north of C. In which
direction is D with respect to A If D is standing in the south of C?
Solution:

मुख्यमंत्री अभ्युदय योजना प्रकोष्ठ - उपाम 13

 From the above statement, a direction diagram can be made as follows.
From the diagram, it is clear that D is standing in the south-west direction of A.
 Get Acquainted with the casting of Shadows
Often the questions are asked when the candidates need to identify the direction
where one’s shadow is cast. Some of the important points are given below
which can help the candidates to solve the questions related to shadows
effectively.
1. If a man faces a rising sun, his shadow will always be in the west.
2. During sunset, one’s shadow will always be casted in the east.
3. Similarly, if a man faces north, his shadow will be on his right during sunrise
and on his left during sunset.
4. In mid-noon, no shadows are seen as the sun’s rays are vertically downwards.

Direction Questions: Example 2

Mr. X and Mr. Y are facing each other and are enjoying the sunrise. If Mr.
X’s shadow falls on his left side, then which direction is Mr. Y facing?
Solution:
As it is sunrise, any shadow has to fall in the west direction. As it is given that
Mr. X’s shadow falls on his left side, it can easily be interpreted that Mr. X is
facing North (since his left side is facing west). Now as Mr. X and Mr. Y are
facing each other, Mr. Y has to face South.

 Get well-versed with the rotations

Often some statements are given where the subject rotates either to the left or to
the right. It should always be remembered that rotating right implies clockwise
rotation while rotating left implies rotating anti-clockwise.
Direction Questions: Example 3
Mr. A moves North and then turns to his right and keep walking. After that,
he again turns right and walks a certain distance and then finally walks to the
left. In which direction is he walking now?
Solution:
The problem becomes simple if a diagram is constructed according to the given
statements.

मुख्यमंत्री अभ्युदय योजना प्रकोष्ठ - उपाम 14

From the diagram, it can be easily interpreted that Mr. A is now walking
towards the east.

Distance Related Questions

In most of the direction and distance questions, the candidates are required to
calculate a certain parameter from the question statement. The questions can be
related to the total distance walked, the shortest path, the distance between two
entities, etc.
While solving the distance related question, one must be thorough with
the Pythagorean Theorem to be able to solve most of the questions. The
Pythagorean Theorem is used to calculate the shortest path travelled, the
minimum distance between two points, etc. A couple of examples are given
below to illustrate the direction and distance questions better.

Direction and Distance Reasoning Questions: Example 1

Mr. P walked 3 km towards east. After that, he moved clockwise and walked 4
Kms. What would have been the distance if he took the shortest path from his
initial position to his final position?
Solution:
At first, one must construct the diagram of his movement. The movement route
of Mr. P is given below.

मुख्यमंत्री अभ्युदय योजना प्रकोष्ठ - उपाम 15

In this diagram, the positions of Mr. P are marked as A, B and C where A is the
initial position and C is the final position. From the diagram, the shortest path
from his initial position to the final position will be AC.
AC= √ (AB²+ BC²)
So, AC= 5.
Therefore, the shortest path from the initial distance to the final distance will be
5 Kms.

Direction and Distance Reasoning Questions: Example 2

Mr. M walked 20m towards the west and turned left and again walked 15m.
Then he moved anti-clockwise and walked 20m. At last, he moved clockwise
and walked another 10m. How far is Mr. M now from his initial position?
Solution:
First, a diagram should be constructed taking all his movements into
consideration. The diagram will come up as:

From this diagram, the distance between initial and final position can be easily
calculated which will be: 15m + 10m= 25m.

Mathematical Operations:
1.If ‘+’ =’×’, ‘- ‘=’+’, ‘×’ =’/’,’/’ = ‘- ‘
Then answer the following questions based on this information
1. 23 - 3/1 + 15 × 5 =
A - 22
B - 23
C - 24
D – 25

Explanation −
If the actual operators will be replaced as per the direction of the question, then
the series will be −
23 + 3 - 1 × 15/5
Now we can apply the rule to solve the above. 1st “15/5” section will be solved.
15/5=3
Now (1 × 3) section will be solved.
1×3=3
Series will reduce to 23 + 3 - 3 = 23
Hence our answer will be option B.

1. Question: In which year was Rahul born?

Statements:
Rahul at present is 25 years younger to his mother.
Rahul's brother, who was born in 1964, is 35 years younger to his mother.
A. I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient

B. II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient

C. Either I or II is sufficient

D. Neither I nor II is sufficient

E. Both I and II are sufficient

Answer: Option E
2. From both I and II, we find that Rahul is (35 - 25) = 10 years older than
his brother, who was born in 1964. So, Rahul was born in 1954
Question: What will be the total weight of 10 poles, each of the same
weight?
Statements:
I. One-fourth of the weight of each pole is 5 kg.
II. The total weight of three poles is 20 kilograms more than the total weight of
two poles.

A. I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient

B. II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient

C. Either I or II is sufficient

D. Neither I nor II is sufficient

E. Both I and II are sufficient

Answer: Option C
Explanation:
From I, we conclude that weight of each pole = (4x5) kg = 20 kg.

मुख्यमंत्री अभ्युदय योजना प्रकोष्ठ - उपाम 22

So, total weight of 10 poles = (20 x 10) kg = 200 kg.
From II, we conclude that:
Weight of each pole = (weight of 3 poles) - (weight of 2 poles) = 20 kg.
So, total weight of 10 poles = (20 x 10) kg = 200 kg.

 MISSING ALPHABET SERIES

Example 1: The missing letter of the series O, R, U, __ is:

a) V b) W c) X d) Y e) Z
Answer: If you take a look at the table, you will see that the letter O
corresponds to number 15 and the letter R to the number 18. Similarly, you will
notice that the letter U corresponds to the number 21. Therefore, the missing
alphabet should be X which corresponds to the number 24 as per the rule of the
sequence. Hence the correct option is c) X.
Example 2: What should be the alphabet that follows the order of the
sequence: A, D, I, __
a) L b) M c) N d) O e) P
Answer: Once we convert the alphabet series into number series, the question
will become very easy. The alphabet A corresponds to the number 1, alphabet D
corresponds to the number 4. Similarly, the alphabet ‘I’, corresponds to the
number 9. Thus the number series that we want to solve here is 1, 4, 9, ___. You
can see that each of the numbers is a square and that the sequence is a perfect
square series. 1, 22, 32, 42 (=16). The alphabet that corresponds to 16 is P.
Therefore, the sequence is O, R, U, P. Thus the correct option is e) P.

Answer & Explanation
Answer –D. C’s Share = 1053 and X = 1638
Explanation: A= 2/3 B; B= 1/3C; A: B = 2:3
B:C = 1:3; A: B:C = 2:3:9 C = 9/14 * 1638 = 1053

Example 3: Seats for Mathematics, Science and arts in a school are in the ratio
5:7:8. There is a proposal to increase these seats by X%, Y% and Z%
respectively. And the ratio of increased seats is 2:3:4, which of the following is
true?
A.X = 50; Z = 40 B.Y = 40; Z = 50 C.X = 40; Z = 75 D.X = 50; Z = 40 E.Y =
50; X = 75
Answer & Explanation
Answer – C.X = 40; Z = 75 Explanation: Number of increased seats are (140%
of 5x), (150% of 7x) and (175% of 8x) i.e., (140/100 * 5x), (150/100 * 7x) and
(175/100 * 8x) i.e., 7x, 21x/2 and 14x Required ratio = 7x:21x/2:14x = 14x :
21x : 28x = 2:3:4

Example 4: Two candles of same height are lighted at the same time. The first
is consumed in 3 hours and second in 2 hours. Assuming that each candles
burns at a constant rate, in how many hours after being lighted, the ratio
between the first and second candles becomes 2:1?
A.2 hour
B.2.5 hour
C.4-hour
D.4.5-hour
E. None of these
Answer & Explanation
Answer – D.4.5 hour
Explanation: Height of both candles are same i.e. h First one takes 6 hours to
burn completely, so in one hour = h/3 Similarly second one will burn in one
hour = h/2 Let after t time, ratio between their height is 2:1 so, remaining height
of first candle = h – t*(h/3) similarly for second candle = h – t*(h/2) ratio given
2:1, h – t*(h/3) / h – t*(h/2) = 2/1 Solving we get t = 9/2 = 4.5

Example 4: A watch dealer incurs an expense of Rs. 150 for producing every
watch. He also incurs an additional expenditure of Rs. 30,000, which is
independent of the number of watches produced. If he is able to sell a watch
during the season, he sells it for Rs. 250. If he fails to do so, he has to sell each
watch for Rs. 100.If he produces 1500 watches, what is the number of watches
that he must sell during the season in order to breakeven, given that he is able to
sell all the watches produced? A) 580 B) 620 C) 650 D) 700 E) None
View Answer Option D
Solution: Total cost to produced 1500 watches = (1500 × 150 + 30000) = Rs.
2,55,000 Let he sells x watches during the season, therefore number of watches
sold after the season = (1500 – x) 250 × x + (1500 – x) × 100 = 150x + 150000
Now, break-even is achieved if production cost is equal to the selling price.
150x + 150000 = 2,55,000 x = 700

 SIMPLE & COMPOUND INTEREST

Example 1: Out of a sum of Rs 850, a part was lent at 6% SI and the other at
12% SI. If the interest on the first part after 2 years is equal to the interest on the
second part after 4 years, then the second sum is
A) Rs350
B) Rs280
C) Rs170
D) Rs220
E) None
View Answer Option C Solution: Let the first part be x then second part be
850-x. (x*6*2)/100 = [(850-x)*12*4]/100 x= 850*4 -4x 5x=850*4 x=680 Then
second part 850-680=Rs 170.

Example 2: A sum of Rs. 550 was taken as a loan. This is to be paid back in
two equal installments. If the rate of interest be 20% compounded annually,
then the value of each installment is:
A) Rs360
B) Rs280
C) Rs250
D) Rs320
E) None
View Answer Option A) Rs360 Solution: Let x = equal installment at the end
of one year (rate% annually). Now 1st year, P =550, Interest = (550*20*1)/100
= 110. Now, at the beginning of 2nd year, P =550 + 110 – x Interest at the end
of 2nd year, = [(660 – X) *20*1]/100 = 132 –x/5. Hence, total installment, 2x =
550 + 110 + 132 – x/5 2x + x/5= 792 x = 360.

View Answer Option D Solution: 1525-1300= 225 for 1.5 yrs (3.5-2) so for
one yr 225/1.5= 150 then for 2 yrs interest is 150+150=300 Then principal
1300-300=1000. Now 150/1000*100= 15%

Example 4: The simple interest on a certain sum of money for 3 years at 8%

per annum is half the compound interest on Rs. 4000 for 2 years at 10% per
annum. The sum placed on simple interest is:
A) Rs1800
B) Rs1750
C) Rs2000
D) Rs1655
E) None
View Answer Option B Solution: CI =[4000 *(1 + 10/100)2 – 4000]
=4000*11/10*11/10 – 4000 =Rs840. Then Sum in SI 420 (ie840/2)=
(P*3*8)/100 =Rs1750.

Example 5: A Woman took a loan of Rs. 15,000 to purchase a mobile. She

Example 1: What will be the area of trapezium whose parallel sides are 22 cm
and 16 cm long, and the distance between them is 11 cm?
A) 209 cm2
B) 282 cm2
C) 265 cm2
D) 179 cm2
E) 302 cm2
View Answer Option A
Solution: Area of a trapezium = 1/2 (sum of parallel sides) * (perpendicular
distance between them) = 1/2 (22 + 16) * (11) = 209 cm2

Example 2: The perimeter of a rectangle is 42 m. If the area of the square

formed on the diagonal of the rectangle as its side is 1 1/12 % more than the
area of the rectangle, find the longer side of the rectangle.
A) 19 m
B) 16 m
C) 9 m
D) 5 m
E) 12 m
View Answer Option E
Solution: Let the sides of the rectangle be l and b respectively. From the given
data,
√ (l2 + b2) = (1 + 1 1/12) lb
=> l2 + b2 = (1 + 13/12) lb = 25/12 * lb 12(l2 + b2) = 25 lb
Adding 24 lb on both sides 12 l2 + 12b2 + 24lb = 25 lb 12(l2 + b2 + 2lb) = 49
lb 12(l + b)2 = 49lb but 2(l + b) = 42 => l + b = 21 So 12(21)2 = 49lb Solve, we
get lb = 108 Since l + b = 21, longer side = 12 m

Example 3: At the rate of Rs. 2 per sq m, cost of painting a rectangular floor is
Rs 5760. If the length of the floor is 80% more than its breadth, then what is the
length of the floor?
A) 25 m
B) 72 m
C) 67 m
D) 56 m
E) 46 m
View Answer Option B
Solution: Let the length and the breadth of the floor be l m and b m
respectively. l = b + 80% of b = l + 0.8 b = 1.8b
Area of the floor = 5760/2 = 2880 sq m l*b = 2880 i.e., l * l/1.8 = 2880 l = 72

Example 4: A 7 m wide path is to be made around a circular garden having a

diameter of 7 m. What will be the area of the path in square metre?
A) 298
B) 256
C) 308
D) 365
E) 387
View Answer Option C
Solution: Area of the path = Area of the outer circle – Area of the inner circle =
π{7/2 + 7}2 – π [7/2]2 = 308 sq m

Example 5: What is the volume of a cylinder whose curved surface area is 1408
cm2 and height is 16 cm?
A) 7715 cm3
