In a certain code language, ‘MADRAS’ is written as ‘112’, and ‘JAMMU’ is written as ‘82’. How will ‘PUNJAB’ be written in that language
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 104.
M ⇔ N = 14, A ⇔ Z = 26, D ⇔ W = 23, R ⇔ I = 9, A ⇔ Z = 26, S ⇔ H = 8
MADRAS = 14 + 26 + 23 + 9 + 26 + 8 = 106
106 + Number of letters in the word MADRAS = 106 + 6 = 112
Similarly; P ⇔ K = 11, U ⇔ F = 6, N ⇔ M = 13, J ⇔ Q = 17, A ⇔ Z = 26, B ⇔ Y = 25
PUNJAB = 11 + 6 + 13 + 17 + 26 + 25 = 98
98 + Number of letters in the word PUNJAB = 98 + 6 = 104
