If 'Z' is coded as '2197' and 'R' is coded as '729' in a certain code language, then how will 'J' be coded in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The pattern followed here is:
Code = (Positional value of letter ÷ 2)3
• Z: Positional value = 26
⇒ (26 ÷ 2)3 = 133 = 2197
• R: Positional value = 18
⇒ (18 ÷ 2)3 = 93 = 729
Similarly, for J:
• J: Positional value = 10
⇒ (10 ÷ 2)3 = 53 = 125
Therefore, the correct answer is (A) 125.
