Question:

In a certain code language, 'GANT' is coded as '126', and 'PROM' is coded as '186'. How will 'GAIL' be coded in that language?

Options:

63

79

58

87

Correct Answer:

87

Explanation:

The logic followed here is :

SUM OF THE PLACE VALUE × 3

HERE

GANT

=  7 +  1 + 14 + 20 = 42

AND  42 × 3 = 126

PROM

=  16 +  18 + 15 + 13 = 62

AND  62 × 3 = 126

SIMILARLY

GAIL

=  7 + 1 + 9  + 12

= 29 × 3 = 87
