We know that each letter of the English alphabet is represented by numeric values from 1 to 26. Here, each letter is coded as the number obtained by adding the digits of numeric value of that letter. YOGHURT is coded as 7678392: Y (25) = 2 + 5 = 7 O (15) = 1 + 5 = 6 G (07) = 0 + 7 = 7 H (08) = 0 + 8 = 8 U (21) = 2 + 1 = 3 R (18) = 1 + 8 = 9 T (20) = 2 + 0 = 2 |
Similarly, for QUICKLY: Q (17) = 1 + 7 = 8 U (21) = 2 + 1 = 3 I (09) = 0 + 9 = 9 C (03) = 0 + 3 = 3 K (11) = 1 + 1 = 2 L (12) = 1 + 2 = 3 Y (25) = 2 + 5 = 7 Hence, 8393237 is the correct answer. |
