Question : Directions: In a certain code language, ALIVE is coded as 64, and HALL is coded as 45. How will MOVIE be coded in that language?
Option 1: 71
Option 2: 80
Option 3: 79
Option 4: 58
Correct Answer: 79
Solution :
Given:
ALIVE is coded as 64 and HALL is coded as 45
Add the positional values of the alphabet and in the sum add the result of the number of letters in the given word multiplied by 3 to obtain the required code.
ALIVE→A(1) + L(12) + I(9) + V(22) + E(5) = 49; 49 + (5 × 3) = 64
HALL→H(8) + A(1) + L(12) + L(12) = 33; 33 + (4 × 3) = 45
Similarly, MOVIE→M(13) + O(15) + V(22) + I(9) + E(5) = 64; 64 + (5 × 3) = 79
So, MOVIE is coded as 79. Hence, the third option is correct.
