In a certain code language, ‘EACH’ is written as ‘97’, and ‘EASY’ is written as ‘64’. How will ‘ECHO’ be written in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 83.
The logic used here is:
‘EACH’ is written as ‘97’
Opposite of E = V = 22
Opposite of A = Z = 26
Opposite of C = X = 24
Opposite of H = S = 19
EACH = Sum of opposite positional values + 6 = 22 + 26 + 24 + 19 + 6 = 91 + 6 = 97
‘EASY’ is written as ‘64’
Opposite of E = V = 22
Opposite of A = Z = 26
Opposite of S = H = 8
Opposite of Y = B = 2
EASY = Sum of opposite positional values + 6 = 22 + 26 + 8 + 2 + 6 = 58 + 6 = 64
Similarly;
Code for the word ECHO:
Opposite of E = V = 22
Opposite of C = X = 24
Opposite of H = S = 19
Opposite of O = L = 12
EASY = Sum of opposite positional values + 6 = 22 + 24 + 19 + 12 + 6 = 77 + 6 = 83
Hence, 83 is the correct answer.
