Number Coding Decoding - Backward Sequence
Number Coding Decoding - Backward Sequence
NUMBER CODING DECODING: Coding with Backward Sequence
This is the pattern of coding which exhibits the natural correlation of Arabic numbers with alphabetic letters. For instance, alphabets A to Z are assigned the numeric codes from 1 to 26 in the reverse order like A = 26, B = 25 and so on.
NOTE : Backward order position of a letter = 27 − Forward order position of letter
For Example : Backward order position of B = 27 − Forward order position of B = 27 − 2 = 25
Example 1 : If GREAT is coded as 20 - 9 -22 - 26 - 7, then how will you code the following :
(a) FATE (b) DATE (c) MATE (d) RATE
Solution : In this question , if we assign numbers to these alphabets in the reverse order we get : A = 26 , B = 25, C = 24 ... and so on. Similarly,
Example 2 : If BAG = 71, then VICE = ?
(a) 69 (b) 70 (c) 75 (d) 90
Answer : (a)
Solution : According to the backward or reverse sequence of alphabets, B = 25 , A = 26 and G = 20. If we add all these numbers we get = 25 + 26 + 20 = 71. Similarly, V = 5 , I = 18 , C= 24 and E = 22. If we add these numbers = 5 + 18 + 24 + 22 = 69 (using backward letter positions). Hence the answer is 69.
Example 3 : If READ is coded as 9-22-26-23, then DREAM =?
(a) 23-9-22-26-14 (b) 23-8-22-26-14 (c) 23-9-21-25-14 (d) 23-9-22-24-14
Answer : (a)
Solution : In this question , if we assign numbers to these alphabets in the reverse order we get : A = 26 , B = 25, C = 24 ... and so on.
Similarly,
In case of DREAM,
D=23
R=9
E=22
A=26
M=14
So, the answer is 23-9-22-26-14.
Example 4 : If GO is coded as 19-11 ,SHE is coded as 7-18-21, then SOME =?
(a) 7-11-12-20 (b) 7-11-13-21 (c) 7-10-13-21 (d) 7-10-12-21
Answer : (b)
Solution : In this question , if we assign numbers to these alphabets in the reverse order we get : A = 26 , B = 25, C = 24 ... and so on.
In case of GO,
G=20, subtract 1 from 20, 20-1= 19
O=12, subtract 1 from 12, 12-1 =11
Similarly, in case of SHE,
S= 8, subtract 1 from 8, 8-1= 7
H= 19, subtract 1 from 19, 19-1= 18
E= 22,subtract 1 from 22, 22-1 = 21
Noe , in case of SOME,
S= 8, subtract 1 from 8, 8-1=7
O =12, subtract 1 from 12, 12-1 =11
M= 14, subtract 1 from 14, 14-1= 13
E= 22,subtract 1 from 22, 22-1 = 21
So, the answer is 7-11-13-21.
Example 5 : If TO is coded as 5-10, then THE =?
(a) 7-19-22 (b) 6-19-22 (c) 5-17-20 (d) 4-17-20
Answer : (c)
In this question , if we assign numbers to these alphabets in the reverse order we get : A = 26 , B = 25, C = 24 ... and so on.
In case of TO,
T=7, subtract 2 from 7, 7-2= 5
O=12, subtract 2 from 12, 10-2 = 8
Similarly, in case of THE,
T=7, subtract 2 from 7, 7-2= 5
H= 19, subtract 2 from 19, 19-2 = 17
E= 22, subtract 2 from 22, 22-2 = 20
So, the answer is 5-17-20.

Students / Parents Reviews [10]
It was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.

10thMy experience was very good with Abhyas academy. I am studying here from 6th class and I am satisfied by its results in my life. I improved a lot here ahead of school syllabus.
Ayan Ghosh
8thA marvelous experience with Abhyas. I am glad to share that my ward has achieved more than enough at the Ambala ABHYAS centre. Years have passed on and more and more he has gained. May the centre flourish and develop day by day by the grace of God.
Archit Segal
7thMy experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
Shivam Rana
7thMy experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
Hiya Gupta
8thIt has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
Barkha Arora
10thOne of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
Aman Kumar Shrivastava
10thIt was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
Eshan Arora
8thI have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
Yatharthi Sharma
10thAbhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.
