In a certain code language, ALARMING is coded as 150. How will FLOATER be coded in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 154.
The logic used here is:
ALARMING is coded as 150
ALARMING = (1 + 12 + 1 + 18 + 13 + 9 + 14 + 7) × 2 = 75 × 2 = 150
Similarly,
Code for the word FLOATER:
FLOATER = (6 + 12 + 15 + 1 + 20 + 5 + 18) × 2 = 154
Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
