If in a coding system, ‘ROSE’ is written as ‘35’ and ‘MINT’ is written as ‘46’, then ‘SKN’ will be written as ____in the same coding system.

Solution

The logic followed here is as follows: (The sum of place value of all the consonants of the word as per the English alphabetical series) – (Number of vowels in the word). For ROSE: Consonants: R(18), S(19) → Sum = 37; Vowels: O, E → Count = 2 → 37 – 2 = 35 For MINT: Consonants: M(13), N(14), T(20) → Sum = 47; Vowels; I → Count = 1→ 47 – 1 = 46 For SKIN: Consonants: S(19), K(11), N(14) → Sum = 44; Vowels; I → Count = 1→   44 – 1 = 43.
