Question : Directions: In a certain code language, TROUBLE is written as 93, and COMMUTE is written as 90. How will FRACTION be written in that language?
Option 1: 86
Option 2: 76
Option 3: 56
Option 4: 96
Correct Answer: 86
Solution :
Given:
TROUBLE is written as 93, and COMMUTE is written as 90 –
Add the place value of the letters of TROUBLE, to obtain the required code –
T→20; R→18; O→15; U→21; B→2; L→12; E→5
20 + 18 + 15 + 21 + 2 + 12 + 5 = 93
Thus, TROUBLE is coded as 93.
And, COMMUTE is written as 90 –
C→3; O→15; M→13; M→13; U→21; T→20; E→5
3 + 15 + 13 + 13 + 21 + 20 + 5 = 90
Thus, COMMUTE is coded as 90.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for FRACTION→
F→6; R→18; A→1; C→3; T→20; I→9; O→15; N→14
6 + 18 + 1 + 3 + 20 + 9 + 15 + 14 = 86
So, FRACTION is coded as 86. Hence, the first option is correct.
