Correct Answer: 43
Solution :
Given:
PDU is written as 40 and HXO is written as 34.
Add the place values of opposite letters of PDU, to obtain the required code –
Opposite letter→P – K; D – W; U – F
Place values of the opposite letter→K – 11; W – 23; F – 6
Now, add the place values→11 + 23 + 6 = 40
Thus, PDU is coded as 40.
And, HXO is written as 34 –
Opposite letter→H – S; X – C; O – L
Place values of the opposite letter→S – 19; C – 3; L – 12
Now, add the place values→19 + 3 + 12 = 34
Thus, HXO is coded as 34.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for BMW→
Opposite letter→B – Y; M – N; W – D
Place values of the opposite letter→Y – 25; N – 14; D – 4
Now, add the place values→25 + 14 + 4 = 43
Thus, BMW is coded as 43. Hence, the third option is correct.
