Question
If ‘FORGET’ is coded as ‘29’ and ‘NOISE’ is
coded as ‘28’, then what is the code for ‘WARMTH’?Solution
Starting from the letter at the left end, add the place value of all the alternate letters (i.e., all the odd positioned letters), to get the code. FORGET → Place value of (F + R + E) Code = (6 + 18 + 5) = 29. NOISE → Place value of (N + I + E) Code = (14 + 9 + 5) = 28. WARMTH → Place value of (W + R + T) Code = (23 + 18 + 20) = 61.
