In a certain code language, if CARROT is coded as 81, BROCCOLI is coded as 85, then what will MUSHROOM be coded as?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 130.
Logic: (Sum of positional values) + No. of letters = Code
CARROT = 3 + 1+ 18 + 18 + 15 + 20 = 75 + 6 = 81
BROCCOLI = 2 + 18 + 15 + 3 + 3 + 15 + 12 + 9 = 77 + 8 = 85
Similarly,
MUSHROOM = 13 + 21 + 19 + 8 + 18 + 15 + 15 + 13 = 122 + 8 = 130
