In a certain code language, CAT is written as 24 and LATE is written 38. How will DOLL be written in the same language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3, i.e., 43.
Logic: Add the place value of all letters,
CAT is written as 24
C ⇔ 3, A ⇔ 1, T ⇔ 20
3 + 1 + 20 = 24
LATE is written 38
L ⇔ 12, A ⇔ 1, T ⇔ 20, E ⇔ 5
12 + 1 + 20 + 5 = 38
Similarly, DOLL is written as 43
D ⇔ 4, O ⇔15, L ⇔ 12, L ⇔ 12
4 + 15 + 12 + 12 = 43
