In a certain code language, if CAB is coded as 75, and DIP is coded as 52. How will FLY be coded in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 38.
The logic used here is:
CAB is coded as 75
Opposite of C = X = 24
Opposite of A = Z = 26
Opposite of B = Y = 25
CAB = 24 + 26 + 25 = 75
DIP is coded as 52
Opposite of D = W = 23
Opposite of I = R = 18
Opposite of P = K = 11
DIP = 23 + 18 + 11 = 52
Similarly;
Code for the word FLY:
Opposite of F = U = 21
Opposite of L = O = 15
Opposite of Y = B = 2
FLY = 21 + 15 + 2 = 38
Hence, 38 is the correct answer.
