In a certain code language, 'CHOICE' is written as '53', and 'CHARGE' is written as '52', how will 'CHANCE' be written in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1, i.e., 44.
Logic: Add all place values of letters + 10
'CHOICE' is written as '53'
C ⇔ 3, H ⇔ 9, O ⇔ 15, I ⇔ 9, C ⇔ 3, E ⇔ 5
(3 + 8 + 15 + 9 + 3 + 5) + 10 = 43 + 10 = 53
'CHARGE' is written as '52'
C ⇔ 3, H ⇔ 8, A ⇔ 1, R ⇔ 18, G ⇔ 7, E ⇔ 5
(3 + 8 + 1 + 19 + 7 + 5) + 10 = 42 + 10 = 52
Similarly, 'CHANCE' is written as '44'
C ⇔3, H ⇔ 8, A ⇔ 1, N ⇔ 14, C ⇔ 3, E ⇔ 5
(3 + 8 + 1 + 14 + 3 + 5) + 10 = 34 + 10 = 44
