SSC Selection Post - Graduation Level 2020 - 9 Nov 2020 - Shift 3 • Reasoning • Q93

In a code language, if RELATED is written as 72, then how will FRANCE be written in the same language?
 

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 53.

Logic: (Sum of place values of alphabets in the word) + (Number of alphabets in that word) 

RELATED = 72 → (18 + 5 + 12 + 1 + 20 + 5 + 4) + 7 = 65 + 7 = 72

Similarly, FRANCE→ (6 + 18 + 1 + 14 + 3 + 5) + 6 = 47 + 6 = 53
