In a certain code language, ‘MAN’ is coded as ‘15316’ and ‘SHE’ is coded as ‘21107’. How will ‘OUT’ be coded in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 172322.
Logic: Positional value of each letter + 2
‘MAN’ is coded as ‘15316’: M = 13 + 2 = 15, A = 1 + 2 = 3, N = 14 + 2 = 16
‘SHE’ is coded as ‘21107’: S = 19 + 2 = 21, H = 8 + 2 = 10, E = 5 + 2 = 7
Similarly, OUT = ?: O = 15 + 2 = 17, U = 21 + 2 = 23, T = 20 + 2 = 22
