In a certain code language, 'TDZM' is coded as '8-24-2-15' and 'KRIY' is coded as '17-10-19-3'. What is the code for 'HAWP' in the given code language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3, i.e., 20-27-5-12.
Logic: Code = Place value of opposite letters + 1
'TDZM' is coded as '8-24-2-15'
T ⇔ G ⇔ 7 + 1 = 8, D ⇔ W ⇔ 23 + 1 = 24, Z ⇔ A ⇔ 1 + 1 = 2, M ⇔ N ⇔ 14 + 1 = 15
'KRIY' is coded as '17-10-19-3'
K ⇔ P ⇔ 16 + 1 = 17, R ⇔ I ⇔ 9 + 1 = 10, I ⇔ R ⇔ 18 + 1 = 19, Y V B ⇔ 2 + 1= 3
'HAWP' is coded as '20-27-5-12'
H ⇔ S ⇔ 19 + 1 = 20, A ⇔ Z ⇔ 26 + 1 = 27, W ⇔ D ⇔ 4 + 1 = 5, P ⇔ K ⇔ 11 + 1 = 12
