If BOY is coded as 65, and GIRL is 75, then what is WOMAN?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
BOY → B(2) + O(15) + Y(25) = 42
GIRL → G(7) + I(9) + R(18) + L(12) = 46
Therefore, the addition of the letter positions does not make 65 or 75. Therefore, a special coding rule is used in this question.
Looking at the options, a common pattern might be:
BOY has 3 letters → 65
GIRL has 4 letters → 75
That is, 10 is added for each additional letter.
WOMAN has 5 letters, so:
65 → 75 → 85
Correct answer: (A) 85
