If MACHINE is coded as 15-3-5-10-11-16-7. How will you code DRAGON ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → 6-20-3-9-17-16
Each letter is written as its place in the alphabet plus 2. The rule is found on MACHINE:
M (13) → 15, A (1) → 3, C (3) → 5, H (8) → 10
I (9) → 11, N (14) → 16, E (5) → 7
Applied to DRAGON:
D (4) → 6, R (18) → 20, A (1) → 3
G (7) → 9, O (15) → 17, N (14) → 16
