In a certain code language, 'LTRH' is coded as '58' and 'NBZW' is coded as '65'. How is 'GCSE' coded in the given language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1, i.e., 34.
Logic: Add the place value of all letters
'LTRH' is coded as '58'
L ⇔ 12, T ⇔ 20, R ⇔ 18, H ⇔ 8
12 + 20 + 18 + 8 = 58
'NBZW' is coded as '65'
N ⇔ 14, B ⇔ 2, Z ⇔ 26, W ⇔ 23
14 + 2 + 26 + 23 = 65
Similarly, 'GSCE' is coded as '34'
G ⇔ 7, S ⇔ 19, C ⇔ 3, E ⇔ 5
7 + 19 + 3 + 5 = 34
