In a certain code language, 'ABOVE' is written as '9' and 'SHINE' is written as '11'. How will 'PARTY' be written in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 16.
Logic: Add the positional value of all alphabets and divide by a number of alphabets.
'ABOVE' is written as '9': (1 + 2 +15 + 22 + 5) ÷ 5 = 45 ÷ 5 = 9
'SHINE' is written as '11': (19 + 8 + 9 + 14 + 5) ÷ 5 = 55 ÷ 5 =11
Similarly, 'PARTY is written as '16': (16 + 1 + 18 + 20 + 25) ÷ 5 = 16
