In a certain code language, ‘FLY’ is coded as 43, and ‘HAT’ is coded as 29. How will ‘BEACH’ be coded in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 19.
The logic used here is:
‘FLY’ is coded as 43
FLY = 6 + 12 + 25 = 43
‘HAT’ is coded as 29
HAT = 8 + 1 + 20 = 29
Similarly;
Code for the word BEACH:
BEACH = 2 + 5 + 1 + 3 + 8 = 19
Hence, 19 is the correct answer.
