In a certain code language, 'BOOK' is coded as '47', and 'PEN' is coded as '38'. How will 'NOTEPAD' be coded in that language?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The logic followed here is :
SUM OF PLACE VALUE + NUMBER OF LETTERS IN WORD = GIVEN CODE
BOOK + 4
( 2 + 15 + 15 + 11 ) + 4
43 + 4 = 47
AND
PEN +3
( 16 + 5 + 14 ) + 3
35 + 3 = 38
SIMILARLY
NOTEPAD + 7
( 14 + 15 + 20 + 5 + 16 + 1 + 4 ) +7
= 75 + 7
= 82
