Question 48

In a certain code language, ‘POR’ is coded as ‘52’ and ‘AND’ is coded as ‘22’. How will ‘VXB’ be coded in that language?

Solution

Here the sum of the place values of the letters within the word is added to the number of letters within the word to obtain the code.

POR ==> P+O+R+3 ==> 16+15+18+3 = 52

AND ==> A+N+D+3 ==> 1+14+4+3 = 22

VXB ==> V+X+B+3 ==> 22+24+2+3 = 51

‘VXB’ will be coded as 51 in that language.
