Question
In a certain code language, "ROCK" is coded as 36 and
"MUSIC" is coded as 40. How will "SONG" be coded?Solution
The logic followed is: Code = (Sum of the positional values of consonants) + (Number of letters in the word).
For ROCK:
Consonants: R (18), C (3), K (11)
Sum: 18 + 3 + 11 = 32
Add number of letters (4): 32 + 4 = 36
For MUSIC:
Consonants: M (13), S (19), C (3)
Sum: 13 + 19 + 3 = 35
Add number of letters (5): 35 + 5 = 40
For SONG:
Consonants: S (19), N (14), G (7)
Sum: 19 + 14 + 7 = 40
Add number of letters (4): 40 + 4 = 44.
