Question:

In a certain code language, ‘BOLT’ is coded as ‘2965’, ‘DOLE’ is coded as ‘5723’, ‘TADY’ is coded as ‘0368’, ‘MASB’ is coded as ‘4819’. What is the code for ‘BTO’ in that code language ?

Options:

962

865

482

958

Correct Answer:

962

Explanation:

Given; In a certain code language, ‘BOLT’ is coded as ‘2965’, ‘DOLE’ is coded as ‘5723’, ‘TADY’ is coded as ‘0368’, ‘MASB’ is coded as ‘4819’. 

So,

B O L =  2 9 6 5

D O L E  =  5 7 2 3

T A D Y  =  0 3 6 8

M A S B  =  4 8 1 9

And, B is coded for 9, T is 6, E is 7, A is 8, D is 3, Y is 0

either M or S will be coded as 4 or 1

either O or M will be coded as 5 or 2

So, as per the given options BTO will be coded as 962
