Question

    In a code language, 'MAGNESIUM' is written as '55' and

    'NITROGEN' is written as '48'. How will 'COPPER' be written in that language?
    A 46 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 49 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 38 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 48 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The logic followed here is: From the left end, the sum of the place values (as per English alphabetical series) of all the letters, which are at even position is the coded number. MAGNESIUM = (1 + 14 + 19 + 21) = 55 NITROGEN = (9 + 18 + 7 + 14) = 48 COPPER = (15 + 16 + 18) = 49
