In a certain code language, ‘PAN’ is written as ‘31’, ‘TED’ is written as ‘29’. What is the code for ‘SEC’ in that code language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 27.

 

The logic is used here:

The sum of numerical position values of all the alphabets.

‘PAN’ is written as ‘31’

16 + 1 + 14 = 31

‘TED’ is written as ‘29’

20 + 5 + 4 = 29

Similarly,

SEC: 19 + 5 + 3 = 27

Hence, the correct answer is 27.
