In a certain code language, ‘NOISE’ is coded as 124 and ‘WILD’ is coded as 96. How will ‘GIVER’ be coded in the same language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2, i.e., 122.

Logic: The Sum of the place value of letters × 2 = The code number

‘NOISE’ is coded as 124

N ⇔ 14, O ⇔ 15, I ⇔ 9, S ⇔ 19, E ⇔ 5

14 + 15 + 9 + 19 + 5 = 62 × 2 = 124

‘WILD’ is coded as 96

W ⇔ 23, I ⇔ 9, L ⇔ 12, D ⇔ 4

23 + 9 + 12 + 4 =  48 × 2 = 96

Similarly, ‘GIVER’ is coded as 122

G ⇔ 7, I ⇔ 9, V ⇔ 22, E ⇔ 5, R ⇔ 18

7 + 9 + 22 + 5 + 18 = 61× 2 = 122
