In a certain code language, ‘DISHRAG’ is coded as ‘132’ and ‘ENVELOPE’ is coded as ‘188’. How will ‘IMMINENT’ be coded in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 194.
Logic: Sum of place value of letters × 2
‘DISHRAG’ is coded as ‘132’
(4 + 9 + 19 + 8 + 18 + 1 + 7) × 2 = 66 × 2 = 132
‘ENVELOPE’ is coded as ‘188’
(5 + 14 + 22 + 5 + 12 + 15 + 16 + 5) × 2 = 94 × 2 188
Similarly, ‘IMMINENT’ will be coded as:
(9 + 13 +13 + 9 + 14 + 5 + 14 + 20) × 2 = 97 × 2 = 194
