Question
In a certain code language, ‘HAND’ is coded as 18 and
‘TREE’ is coded as 10. How will ‘COLD’ be coded in that language?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.
HAND → 18
3rd letter N = 14
4th letter D = 4
Code = 14 + 4 = 18
TREE → 10
3rd letter E = 5
4th letter E = 5
Code = 5 + 5 = 10
COLD → ?
3rd letter L = 12
4th letter D = 4
Code = 12 + 4 = 16
