In a certain code language, ‘PRINTER’ is coded as ‘11181814759’ and ‘LOGIC’ is coded as ‘151520924’. How will ‘TERMITE’ be coded in that language?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
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 pattern here is;
(one by one opposite letter place value and same letter place value coded as numerically)
‘PRINTER’ is coded as ‘11181814759’ ,
P → 11 (opposite)
R → 18 (same)
I → 18 (opposite)
N → 14 (same)
T → 7 (opposite)
E → 5 (same)
R → 9 (opposite)
Similarly,
T → 7 (opposite)
E → 5 (same)
R → 9 (opposite)
M → 13 (same)
I → 18 (opposite)
T → 20 (same)
E → 22 (opposite)
Thus, 75913182022 is correct.
