Question 17

In a certain code language, 'POUND' is coded as '106' and 'CLEAN' is coded as '41'. How will 'MAKER' be coded as in that language?

Solution

A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, D = 4, ............., Y = 25, Z = 26

In the word 'POUND', there are two vowels O and U.

O = 15 and U = 21

For vowels we have multiplied with 2 and for consonants with 1.

POUND = 16 +(15 × 2) + (21 × 2) + 14 + 4 = 106

CLEAN = 3 + 12 + (5×2) + (1×2) + 14 = 41

Similarly,

MAKER = 13 + (1 × 2) + 11 + (5 × 2) + 18 = 54

$$\therefore$$ The correct answer is option D.
