Question : Directions: In a certain code language, HORN is written as 8695 and LURP is written as 3397. How will BLUE be written in that language?
Option 1: 2365
Option 2: 2553
Option 3: 5223
Option 4: 2335
Correct Answer: 2335
Solution :
Given:
HORN is written as 8695 and LURP is written as 3397.
The alphabets of words are coded according to their positional values. Single digit positional value is written as it is whereas two digit positional values are added in themselves to obtain a single digit.
HORN→H = 8; O = 15→(1 + 5) = 6; R = 18→(1 + 8) = 9; N = 14→(1 + 4 ) = 5→8695
LURP→L = 12→(1 + 2) = 3; U = 21→(2 + 1) = 3; R = 18→(1 + 8) = 9; P = 16→(1 + 6 ) = 7→3397
Similarly, BLUE→B = 2; L = 12→(1 + 2) = 3; U = 21→(2 + 1) = 3; E = 5→2335
So, BLUE is coded as 2335. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
