In a certain code language, 'GAME' is coded as '78', and 'PNAD' is coded as '105'. How will 'HORN' be coded in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 165
'GAME' is coded as '78', and 'PNAD' is coded as '105'.
The logic used here is:
GAME :- (G + A + M + E) x 3 = (7 + 1 + 13 + 5) x 3 = 26 x 3 = 78
PNAD:- (P + N + A + D) x 3 = (16 + 14 + 1 + 4) x 3 = 35 x 3 = 105
Similarly, HORN :- (H + O + R + N) x 3 = (8 + 15 + 18 + 14) x 3 = 55 x 3 = 165
So, 'HORN' will be coded as '165'.
Hence, option 2 is the correct option.
