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.
