In a certain code language, ‘SHIP’ is written as ‘T17O’, and 'KITE' is written as 'L29D'. How will ‘HOPE’ be written in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. I31D.
The logic used here is:
‘SHIP’ is written as ‘T17O’
S + 1 = T
H = 8; I = 9 ⇒ 8 + 9 = 17
P - 1 = O
'KITE' is written as 'L29D'
K + 1 = L
I = 9; T = 20 ⇒ 9 + 20 = 29
E - 1 = D
Similarly;
Code for the word HOPE:
H + 1 = I
O = 15; P = 16 ⇒ 15 + 16 = 31
E - 1 = D
Hence, I31D is the correct answer.
