The logic used here is: SHARP is written as 73 Opposite of S⇒ H Opposite of H⇒S Opposite of A⇒Z Opposite of R⇒I Opposite of P⇒K Each letter in the word is replaced by the opposite letter and the code is the sum of the opposite values. Code = H + S + Z + I + K = 8 + 19 + 26 + 9 + 11 = 73 |
Similarly, AUDIT is written as ? Opposite of A⇒ Z Opposite of U⇒F Opposite of D⇒W Opposite of I⇒R Opposite of T⇒G Code = Z + F + W + R + G = 26+ 6 + 23 + 18 + 7 = 80 Hence, option 1 is the correct answer. |
