Correct Answer: 40


Solution : Given:
LAMP is written as 66 and OATS is written as 53.

Write the positional values of the letters of LAMP in reverse order and then add the positional values, to obtain the required code –
L→15; A→26; M→14; P→11
Add above positional values –
⇒ 15 + 26 + 14 + 11 = 66
Thus, LAMP is coded as 66.
And, OATS is written as 53 –
O→12; A→26; T→7; S→8
Add above position values –
⇒ 12 + 26 + 7 + 8 = 53
Thus, OATS is written as 53.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for YESS –
Y→2; E→22; S→8; S→8
Add above position values –
⇒ 2 + 22 + 8 + 8 = 40

Thus, YESS is coded as 40. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
