      36' and 'PLACE' is coded as '2 6 10 24 32'. How will 'GHOST' be coded in that language?
      A 14 16 30 38 40 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 14 15 30 38 40 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 14 16 30 40 42 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 12 16 30 38 40 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The logic followed here is as follows: The letters of the word are first arranged in alphabetical order, and then their place values (as per the English alphabetical series) are multiplied by 2. For 'DREAM': Alphabetical Order: A, D, E, M, R Place Values: 1, 4, 5, 13, 18 Multiply by 2: 2, 8, 10, 26, 36 For 'PLACE': Alphabetical Order: A, C, E, L, P Place Values: 1, 3, 5, 12, 16 Multiply by 2: 2, 6, 10, 24, 32 Similarly, for 'GHOST': Alphabetical Order: G, H, O, S, T Place Values: 7, 8, 15, 19, 20 Multiply by 2: 14, 16, 30, 38, 40 So, '14 16 30 38 40' is the correct code. Hence, option a.
