Given; In a certain code language, 'VIRTUE' is coded as '201' and 'TRAGEDY' is coded as '218'. The logic followed here is; (The sum of alphabets in the opposite value x no. of vowels in the word => VIRTUE is coded as 201 => No. of vowels = 03 opposite place value V(22) 5 I(9) 18 R(8) 9 T(20) 7 U(21) 6 E(5) 22 So, 5+18+9+7+6+22 = 67 x 3(no. of vowels) Thus, 201 Similarly, => PROFANE is coded as (?) => No. of vowels = 03 opposite place value P(16) 11 R(18) 9 O(15) 12 F(6) 21 A(1) 26 N(14) 13 E(5) 22 So, 11+9+12+21+26+13+22 = 144 x 3(no. of vowels) Thus, 342 |
