Question
In a certain code language, CERTAIN is coded as 26 –
20 – 24, and CLUSTER is coded as 36 – 19 – 43. How will ENGLISH be coded in that language?Solution
The logic followed here is: Sum of first three alphabets positional value – 4th alphabet positional value – Sum of last three alphabets positional value CERTAIN is coded as 26 – 20 – 24 CER à C (3) + E (5) + R (18) = 26; T = 20; AIN à A (1) + I (9) + N (14) = 24 CLUSTER is coded as 36 – 19 – 43 CLU à C (3) + L (12) + U (21) = 36; S = 19; TER à T (20) + E (5) + R (18) = 43 Similarly, ENGLISH will be coded as: ENG à E (5) + N (14) + G (7) = 26; L = 12; ISH à I (9) + S (19) + H (8) = 36 Thus, ENGLISH will be coded as 26 – 12 – 36. Hence, the correct answer is (A).
