Question : Directions: In a certain code language, O is coded as 15 and ADD is coded as 9. How will PURE be coded in that language?
Option 1: 60
Option 2: 58
Option 3: 57
Option 4: 59
Correct Answer: 60
Solution :
Given:
O is coded as 15 and ADD is coded as 9.
Add the positional values of the alphabet of ADD to obtain the code –
O→15
A→1; D→4; D→4
1 + 4 + 4 = 9
Thus, ADD is coded as 9.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for PURE→
P→16; U→21; R→18; E→5
16 + 21 + 18 + 5 = 60
So, PURE is coded as 60. Hence, the first option is correct.
