In a certain code language, ‘BLISS’ is written as ‘57’ and ‘FORD’ is written as ‘39’.How
will ‘TENT’ be written in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2, i.e., 55.
‘BLISS’ is written as ‘57’
B ⇔ 2, L ⇔ 12, I ⇔ 9, S ⇔ 19, S ⇔ 19
2 + 12 + 9 + 19 + 19 = 61, 61 - 4 = 57
‘FORD’ is written as ‘39’
F ⇔ 6, O ⇔ 15, R ⇔ 18, D ⇔ 4
6 + 15 + 18 + 4 = 43 , 43 - 4 = 39
Similarly, ‘TENT’ is written as '55'
T ⇔ 20, E ⇔ 5, N ⇔ 14, T ⇔ 20
20 + 5 + 14 + 20 = 59, 59 - 4 = 55
