Question : Directions: In a certain code language, SNOW is coded as 21, 16, 17, 25, and RIDE is coded as 20, 11, 6, 7. What is the code for TAPE in that code language?
Option 1: 22, 3, 17, 7
Option 2: 22, 3, 18, 6
Option 3: 20, 3, 18, 7
Option 4: 22, 3, 18, 7
Correct Answer: 22, 3, 18, 7
Solution :
Given:
SNOW is written as 21, 16, 17, 25, and RIDE is written as 20, 11, 6, 7.
Add 2 in the place value of each letter of SNOW, to obtain a required code –
S→19 + 2 = 21; N→14 + 2 = 16; O→15 + 2 = 17; W→23 + 2 = 25
Thus, SNOW is coded as 21, 16, 17, 25.
And, RIDE is written as 20, 11, 6, 7 –
R→18 + 2 = 20; I→9 + 2 = 11; D→4 + 2 = 6; E→5 + 2 = 7
Thus, RIDE is coded as 20, 11, 6, 7.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for TAPE→
T→20 + 2 = 22; A→1 + 2 = 3; P→16 + 2 = 18; E→5 + 2 = 7
Thus, TAPE is coded as 22, 3, 18, 7. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
