In a certain code language, ‘SPECIAL’ is coded as ‘20176410213’. How will ‘MACHINE’ be coded as in that language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e 1424910156.

Understanding Application

The logic used here is:

‘SPECIAL’ is coded as ‘20176410213’

S + 1 = 20

P + 1 = 17

E + 1 = 6

C + 1 = 4

I + 1 = 10

A + 1 = 2

L + 1 = 13

Similarly,

Code for the word MACHINE:

M + 1 = 14

A + 1 = 2

C + 1 = 4

H + 1 = 9

I + 1 = 10

N + 1 = 15

E + 1 = 6

Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.
