In a certain code language, ‘PINK’ is coded as 15, and ‘PAINT’ is coded as 24. How will ‘WILDNESS’ be coded in the same language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 63.
Logic: (Total letters)2 - 1 = Code
‘PINK’ is coded as 15: (4)2 - 1 = 15
‘PAINT’ is coded as 24: (5)2 - 1 = 24
Similarly, ‘WILDNESS’ will be coded: (8)2 - 1 = 63
