Question

    In a certain code language, FAULT is coded as '60' and

    HARM is coded as '40', then how is MAGIC coded as in the given language?
    A 39 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 37 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 33 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 35 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The logic followed here is we add all the place value of each letter, as per the English alphabetical series. In FAULT, Sum = 6 + 1 + 21 + 12 + 20 = 60 So, FAULT is coded as 60. In HARM, Sum = 8 + 1 + 18 + 13 = 40 So, HARM is coded as 40. Similarly, in MAGIC, Sum = 13 + 1 + 7 + 9 + 3 = 33 So, MAGIC is coded as 33.
