Back to paper

In a certain code language, 'DOUBLE' is coded as ‘59’, and 'CHECK’ is coded as ‘30’. How will 'GLITTER' be coded in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 91.

The logic used here is:

'DOUBLE' is coded as ‘59’

DOUBLE = 4 + 15 + 21 + 2 + 12 + 5 = 59

'CHECK’ is coded as ‘30’

CHECK = 3 + 8 + 5 + 3 + 11 = 30

Similarly;

Code for the word GLITTER:

GLITTER = 7 + 12 + 9 + 20 + 20 + 5 + 18 = 91

Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.
