    Question

    If in a coding system, ‘FRAGILE’ is coded as

    ‘55’ and ‘SUCTION’ is coded as ‘98’, then how will ‘COUNTER’ be coded in the same coding system?
    A 98 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 93 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 90 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 100 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The logic followed here is as follows, Code = Sum of Place value of each letter - Number of vowels. Code for FRAGILE, ‘A’, ‘I’ and ‘E’ are the vowels in FRAGILE. Code= (6 + 18 + 1 + 7 + 9 + 12 + 5) - 3; Code = 58 – 3; Code = 55. Code for SUCTION, ‘U’, ‘I’ and ‘O’ are the vowels in SUCTION. Code= (19 + 21 + 3 + 20 + 9 + 15 +14) – 2; Code = 101 – 3; Code = 98. Code for COUNTER, ‘O’, ‘U’ and ‘E’ are the vowels in COUNTER. Code= (3 + 15 + 21 + 14 + 20 + 5 + 18) – 2; Code = 96 – 3; Code = 93.
