In a certain code language, 'PINT' is coded as '60', and 'HOME' is coded as '42'. How will 'TONE' be coded in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 55.
LOGIC: Positional value of the letters in the word + 1
PINT = 16 + 9 + 14 + 20 = 59 + 1 = 60
HOME = 8 + 15 + 13 + 5 = 41 + 1 = 42
Similarly, TONE = 20 + 15 + 14 + 5 = 54 + 1 = 55
