In a certain code language, 'BED' is written as '122' and 'CAB' is written as '37'. How will 'ADD' be written in that code language?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
A B C D E F G H I J K L M

26 25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14
*********************************************
THE LOGIC FOLLOWED HERE IS :
(SUM OF POSITIONAL VALUES OF ALL NUMBERS)2 + 1
AS
BED
= 2 + 5 + 4 = 11
= (SUM OF POSITIONAL VALUES OF ALL NUMBERS)2 + 1
= (11)2 + 1
= 121 + 1 = 122
AND
CAB
= 3 + 1 + 2
= 6
= (SUM OF POSITIONAL VALUES OF ALL NUMBERS)2 + 1
= (6)2 + 1
= 36 + 1 = 37
SIMILARLY
ADD
= 1 + 4 + 4 = 9
= (SUM OF POSITIONAL VALUES OF ALL NUMBERS)2 + 1
= (9)2 + 1
= 81 + 1 = 82A
