In a certain code language, ‘RAJ’ is coded as ‘87’ and ‘GITA’ is coded as ‘148’. How will ‘VARUN’ be coded in that language?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The logic;
(Sum of positional values of letters x total no. of letters = number)
RAJ = 3
R(18)+A(1)+J(10)
= 29 x3 = 87
And,
GITA = 4
G(7)+I(9)+T(20)+A(1)
= 37 x4 = 148
Thus,
VARUN = 5
V(22)+A(1)+R(18)+U(21)+N(14)
76 x5 = 380
