In a certain code language, ‘POT’ is coded as ’15-14-19’ and ‘SPLIT’ is coded as ’18-15-11-8-19’. What is the code for ‘PERFORM’ in the given code language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 15-4-17-5-14-17-12.
‘POT’ is coded as ’15-14-19’
P (16) - 1 = 15, O (15) - 1 = 14, T (20) - 1 = 19
‘SPLIT’ is coded as ’18-15-11-8-19’
S (19) - 1 = 18, P (16) -1 = 15, L (12) - 1 = 11, I (9) - 1 = 8, T (20) -1 = 19
Similarly, the code for ‘PERFORM’
P (16) - 1 = 15, E (5) - 1 = 4, R (18) - 1 = 17, F (6) - 1 = 5, O (15) - 1 = 14, R (18) - 1 = 17, M (13) - 1 = 12
