In a certain code language, BRAVE is coded as 48, and SPEAR is coded as 59. How
will VICTOR be coded in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 87.
The logic used here is:
BRAVE is coded as 48
BRAVE = 2 + 18 + 1 + 22 + 5 = 49
SPEAR is coded as 59
SPEAR = 19 + 16 + 5 + 1 + 18 = 59
Similarly;
Code for the word VICTOR:
VICTOR = 22 + 9 + 3 + 20 + 15 + 18 = 87
Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.
