DLAB Number Pattern Recognition in Invented Languages 2 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: In a fictional number system: 'ze' = 0, 'on' = 1, 'tw' = 2, 'on-tw' = 3, 'tw-tw' = 4. What does 'on-tw-tw' most likely equal?
- 4
- 5 (Correct answer)
- 6
- 7
Correct answer: 5
Combining on(1) + tw(2) + tw(2) = 5 following the established additive pattern.
Question 2: Language R uses: 'bas' = 2, 'qua' = 4, 'oct' = 8. 'Bas-bas' = 4, 'bas-qua' = 6. What does 'qua-oct' most likely equal?
- 10
- 12 (Correct answer)
- 8
- 14
Correct answer: 12
'qua-oct' adds qua(4) and oct(8) together for a total of 12.
Question 3: In a constructed counting system: 'un' = 1, 'bif' = 5, 'dec' = 10. What does 'dec bif un' most likely equal?
- 14
- 15
- 16 (Correct answer)
- 17
Correct answer: 16
The words combine additively: dec(10) + bif(5) + un(1) = 16.
Question 4: In Language M: 'a' = 1, 'aa' = 2, 'aaa' = 3, 'b' = 5, 'ba' = 6. What does 'baa' most likely equal?
- 5
- 6
- 7 (Correct answer)
- 8
Correct answer: 7
'baa' breaks into b(5) + aa(2) = 7, following the established pattern.
Question 5: A fictional language uses: 'min' = 1, 'mid' = 10, 'max' = 100. What does 'max mid min' most likely equal?
- 110
- 111 (Correct answer)
- 112
- 101
Correct answer: 111
Each component adds its value: max(100) + mid(10) + min(1) = 111.
Question 6: In Language P: 'ka' = 3, 'kaka' = 6, 'kakaka' = 9, 'ki' = 2. What does 'kakaki' most likely equal?
- 7
- 8 (Correct answer)
- 11
- 5
Correct answer: 8
'kaka' = 6 and 'ki' = 2, so 'kakaki' = 6 + 2 = 8.
Question 7: In a fictional counting system: 'lo' = 5, 'hi' = 50. 'Lo-hi' = 55. What does 'lo-lo-hi' most likely equal?
- 55
- 60 (Correct answer)
- 65
- 70
Correct answer: 60
lo(5) + lo(5) + hi(50) = 60 using the additive combination rule.
