If A is coded as 11 and BOOK is coded as 83, then how will SEAT be coded as?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 85.
Logic: (The Sum of the positional value of letters) + number of letters × 10
A is coded as 11 → A(1) + 1 × 10 = 11
BOOK is coded as 83 → B(2) + O(15) + O(15) + K(11) = 43
⇒ 43 + 4 × 10 = 83
Similarly, SEAT be coded as 85 → S(19) + E(5) + A(1) + T(20) = 45
⇒ 45 + 4 × 10 = 85
