In a certain code language, HALT is coded as 164, and MOP is coded as 132. How will GOBLET be coded in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 366.
The logic used here is:
HALT is coded as 164
HALT = 8 + 1 + 12 + 20 = 41 × 4 = 164
MOP is coded as 132
MOP = 13 + 15 + 16 = 44 × 3 = 132
Similarly,
Code for the word GOBLET:
GOBLET = 7 + 15 + 2 + 12 + 5 + 20 = 61 × 6 = 366
Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
