In a certain code language, 'STREAM' is coded as 161418445228. How will 'PERIOD' be coded in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 224418362446.
The logic used here is:
'STREAM' is coded as 161418445228
Opposite of S = H = 8 × 2 = 16
Opposite of T = G = 7 × 2 = 14
Opposite of R = I = 9 × 2 = 18
Opposite of E = V = 22 × 2 = 44
Opposite of A = Z = 26 × 2 = 52
Opposite of M = N = 14 × 2 = 28
Similarly,
Code for the word PERIOD:
Opposite of P = K = 1 × 2 = 22
Opposite of E = V = 22 × 2 = 44
Opposite of R = I = 9 × 2 = 18
Opposite of I = R = 18 × 2 = 36
Opposite of O = L = 12 × 2 = 24
Opposite of D = W = 23 × 2 = 46
Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.
