If the word 'LEADER' is coded as 20-13-9-12-13-26. How would you write "LIGHT"
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → 20-17-15-16-28
Comparing each letter of LEADER with its number gives the rule: each number is the letter’s place in the alphabet plus 8.
L (12) → 20, E (5) → 13, A (1) → 9, D (4) → 12, E (5) → 13, R (18) → 26
The same rule applied to LIGHT:
L (12) → 20
I (9) → 17
G (7) → 15
H (8) → 16
T (20) → 28
Shortcut:
Once the rule (+8) is known, the last letter alone decides: T (20) must become 28.
Only Option (2) ends in 28.
