In a certain code language, ‘DICTIONARY’ is coded as ‘20’, and ‘MOBILITY’ is coded as ‘16’. How will ‘TERMINATION’ be coded in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 22.
The logic used here is:
‘DICTIONARY’ is coded as ‘20’,
Number of letters in the word DICTIONARY = 10 × 2 = 20
‘MOBILITY’ is coded as ‘16’
Number of letters in the word MOBILITY = 8 × 2 = 16
Similarly,
Code for the word TERMINATION:
Number of letters in the word TERMINATION = 11 × 2 = 22
Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.
