In a certain code language, 'WORK' is coded as '67', and 'CUP' is coded as '40'. How will 'KITE' be coded in that code language?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
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 FOLLOWED HERE IS:
SUM OF THE POSITIONAL VALUE OF ALPHABET = CODE GIVEN
AS
WORK =
W = 23
O = 15
R = 18
K = 11
= 23 + 15 + 18 + 11 = 67
CUP
C = 3
U = 21
P = 16
3 + 21 + 16 = 40
SIMILARLY
KITE
K = 11
I = 9
T = 20
E = 5
11 + 9 + 20 + 5 = 45
