Question 34
In a certain code language, 'TORQ' is coded as '210', and 'HARN' is coded as '123'. How will 'PADM' be coded in that code language?
Solution
The sum of the place values of the letters within the word is multiplied by 3 to obtain the code.
TORQ ==> $$(T+O+R+Q)\times3$$ ==> $$(20+15+18+17)\times3$$ = $$70\times3$$ = 210
HARN ==> $$(H+A+R+N)\times3$$ ==> $$(8+1+18+14)\times3$$ = $$41\times3$$ = 123
PADM ==> $$(P+A+D+M)\times3$$ ==> $$(16+1+4+13)\times3$$ = $$34\times3$$ = 102
So 'PADM' will be coded as '102' in that code language.
