In a code language, 'BASIC' is coded as 101 and 'MAGIC' is coded as 102. How will 'LIGHT' be coded in the same language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e 79.
BASIC' is coded as 101
| B | A | S | I | C |
| Y | Z | H | R | X |
| 25 | 26 | 8 | 18 | 24 |
25+26+8+18+24 = 101.
'MAGIC' is coded as 102
| M | A | G | I | C |
| N | Z | T | R | X |
| 14 | 26 | 20 | 18 | 24 |
14+26+20+18+24 = 102.
'LIGHT' is coded as 79.
| L | I | G | H | T |
| O | R | T | S | G |
| 15 | 18 | 20 | 19 | 7 |
15+18+20+19+7 = 79.
