In a certain code language 'ROUBST' is coded as 61. How will 'FORTUNATE' be coded in that language ? |
124 114 141 142 |
114 |
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 ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ Z Y X W V U T S R Q P O N 26 25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14
The logic; (sum of positional value of opposite letter - no. of letters in given word) So, 'ROUBST' is coded as 61 R --> I(9)O --> L(12)U --> F(6)B --> Y(25)S --> H(8)T --> G(7) So, 9+12+6+25+8+7 -6=> 61 Similarly,F --> U(21)O --> L(12)R --> I(9)T --> G(7)U --> F(6)N --> M(13)A --> Z(26)T --> G(7)E --> V(22) So, 21+12+9+7+6+13+26+7+22 -9=> 114. |
