9 Types of Reasoning Questions Asked in Competitive Exams<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Type 1: Coding decoding<\/strong><\/h3>\n

These types of questions<\/a> will contain a string of alphabets coded by some logic and based on this logic you will have to encrypt the given word or you may have to decode the word after deciphering the encryption method from an encrypted word.<\/p>\n

Example<\/strong><\/h4>\n

In a certain code \u2018RATIONAL\u2019 is written as \u2018TARNOILA\u2019. How would \u2018BRUTAL\u2019 be written in that code?<\/p>\n

Option a) UBRATL\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Option b) URBTAL\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Option c) URBLAT\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Option d) UBRTAL<\/p>\n

RAT \u2013 TAR<\/p>\n

ION \u2013 NIO<\/p>\n

AL \u2013 LA<\/p>\n

So, if you apply the same technique to the word BRUTAL,<\/p>\n

BRU \u2013 URB<\/p>\n
