Question

In each of the following questions, a word is transformed into a combination of letters and numbers following a specific pattern. Analyze the transformation used in the first pair and apply the same rule to find the missing term in the second pair. BOAT: C40U :: JUMP : ?

• A. K58Q
• B. K76P
• C. K95T
• D. K52E

Answer 1

Answer:

A. K58Q

• First letter → Next alphabet letter.

• Middle number → Sum of the alphabetical positions of all four letters.

• Last letter → Next alphabet letter.

Let's check:

BOAT

• B = 2

• O = 15

• A = 1

• T = 20

Total = 2 + 15 + 1 + 20 = 38

This still does not produce 40.

JUMP

• J = 10

• U = 21

• M = 13

• P = 16

Total = 10 + 21 + 13 + 16 = 60

This does not produce 58.

So even with common SSC coding patterns, the given example and answer do not match.

Final conclusion

There is no valid coding rule that converts:

• BOAT → C40U
  and simultaneously

• JUMP → K58Q.
