In a code language, 'PIG' is coded as 29 and 'COW' is coded as 38. How will 'CAMEL' be coded in the same language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 29
Logic: Addition of the place value of letter - Number of letter in the word = Code
'PIG' is coded as 29
P(16) + I(9) + G(7) - 3 = 29
And, 'COW' is coded as 38
C(3) + O(15) + W(23) - 3 = 38
Similarly, 'CAMEL' be coded as
C(3) + A(1) + M(13) + E(5) + L(12) - 5 = 29
