In a certain code language, “NOPE” is coded as “100”, and “EGG” is coded as “38”. How will “LAP” be coded in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 58.
The logic used here is:
“NOPE” is coded as “100”
NOPE = 14 + 15 + 16 + 5 = 50 × 2 = 100
“EGG” is coded as “38”
EGG = 5 + 7 + 7 = 19 × 2 = 38
Similarly;
Code for the word LAP:
LAP = 12 + 1 + 16 = 29 × 2 = 58
Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
