If "APPLE" is coded as 50 and "ORANGE" as 60, what is the code for "BANANA"?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
APPLE:
A(1) + P(16) + P(16) + L(12) + E(5) = 50
ORANGE:
O(15) + R(18) + A(1) + N(14) + G(7) + E(5) = 60
By using the same rule, the value of BANANA is:
BANANA:
B(2) + A(1) + N(14) + A(1) + N(14) + A(1) = 33
