Question
In a certain code language, ‘PORTS’ is written as
‘88’ and ‘SWEETS’ is written as ‘188’. How will ‘MAGIC’ be written in that code language?ÂSolution
The logic is (Sum of place value of all the letters) × (Number of Vowels) PORTS – 16 + 15 + 18 + 20 + 19 = 88 x 1 = 88 SWEETS – 19 + 23 + 5 + 5 + 20 + 19 = 91 x 2 = 188 MAGIC – 13 + 1 + 7 + 9 + 3 = 33 x 2 = 66
