In a certain code language, ‘SPIRIT’ is coded as ‘65’ and ‘DENSE’ is coded as ‘83’. How will ‘LOGICAL’ be coded in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 123.
Logic: Sum of reverse place value - number of letter
'SPIRIT' is coded as '65' → (8 + 11 + 18 + 9 + 18 + 7) - 6 = 71 - 6 = 65
'DENSE' is coded as '83' → (23 + 22 + 13 + 8 + 22) - 5 = 88 - 5 = 83
Similarly, 'LOGICAL' is coded as '?'
(15 + 12 + 20 + 18 + 24 + 26 + 15) - 7 = 130 - 7 = 123
