Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 45
'WORK' is coded as '67', and 'CUP' is coded as '40'.
| A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M | N | O | P | Q | R | S | T | U | V | W | X | Y | Z |
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 | 25 | 26 |
The logic used here is:
WORK :- W + O + R + K = 23 + 15 + 18 + 11 = 67
CUP :- C + U + P = 3 + 21 + 16 = 40
Similarly, KITE :- K + I + T + E = 11 + 9 + 20 + 5 = 45
So, 'KITE' will be coded as '45'.
Hence, option 2 is the correct option.
