Question

    In a certain code language, ‘CROWN’ is coded as 38 and

    ‘BRICK’ is coded as 12. How will ‘TABLE’ be coded in that language?
    A 12 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 16 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 14 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 15 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The words are coded as the sum of the positional values of the 3rd and 4th letters from the left as per the English alphabetical series.

    CROWN → 30

    3rd letter O = 15

    4th letter W = 23

    Code = 15 + 23 = 38

    BRICK → 12

    3rd letter I = 9

    4th letter C = 3

    Code = 9 + 3 = 12

    TABLE → ?

    3rd letter B = 2

    4th letter L = 12

    Code = 2 + 12 = 14
