In a code language 'SOGGY' is written as '78' and 'PLINTH' is written as '85'. How will 'DEVOTION' be written in that language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option1 i.e. 112
Logic: Sum of positional value of letters + number of letters in word
SOGGY is written as 78' → {S(19) + O(15) + G(7) + G(7) + Y(25)} + 5 = 78
PLINTH is written as 85 → {P(16) + L(12) + I(9) + N(14) + T(20) + H(8)} + 6 = 85
Similarly, DEVOTION is written as 112
→ {D(4) + E(5) + V(22) + O(15) + T(20) + I(9) + O(15) + N(14)} + 8 = 112
