The alphabets from A to Z takes numerical position value from 1 to 26. Code for each word = (Sum of numerical position values of all alphabets) × 2 + 1 HEAD is coded as 37: H (8) + E (5) + A (1) + D (4) = 18 18 × 2 + 1 = 37 And BANK is coded as 57: B (2) + A (1) + N (14) + K (11) = 28 28 × 2 + 1 = 57 |
Similarly, for KITE: K (11) + I (9) + T (20) + E (5) = 45 45 × 2 + 1 = 91 |
