In a certain code language, 'TOP' is coded as '102' and 'BAD' is coded as '14'. How will 'DOG' be coded in that language?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
A B C D E F G H I J K L M

Z Y X W V U T S R Q P O N
26 25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14
*************************************
THE LOGIC FOLLOWED HERE IS :
SUM OF THE POSITIONAL VALUE × 2 = CODE
AS
TOP
= T + O + P
= 20 + 15 +16 = 51
= 51 × 2
= 102
AND
BAD
= B + A + D
= 3 + 1 + 4 = 8
= 8 × 2
= 16
SIMILARLY
DOG
= D + O + G
= 4 + 15 + 7 = 26
= 26 × 2
= 52
