In a certain code language, STAR is coded as 58, and ALARM is coded as 45. How will STAGE be coded in the same language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 52.
The logic used here is:
STAR is coded as 58
STAR = 19 + 20 + 1 + 18 = 58
ALARM is coded as 45
ALARM = 1 + 12 + 1 + 18 + 13 = 45
Similarly;
Code for the word STAGE:
STAGE = 19 + 20 + 1 + 7 + 5 = 52
Hence, 52 is the correct answer.
