If each of the letters in the English alphabet is assigned an even numerical value by giving A = 2, B = 4 and so on, then what would be the total value of the letters of word 'CUET' when similarly coded?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → 98
With A = 2, B = 4 and so on, each letter’s value is twice its position in the alphabet.
C is the 3rd letter: \(2\times3=6\)
U is the 21st letter: \(2\times21=42\)
E is the 5th letter: \(2\times5=10\)
T is the 20th letter: \(2\times20=40\)
Total: \(6+42+10+40=98\)
