Question

    In a code language, ‘CASHEW’ is coded as '78', ‘BANDITS’ is coded as ‘63’. What is the code for ‘RECIPE’ in that code language?

    A 78 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 69 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 68 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 74 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The sum of the place values of the first and the last letters as per English alphabetical series is multiplied by '3' to get the coded number. CASHEW = (3 + 23) X 3 = 26 X 3 = 78. BANDITS = (2 + 19) X 3 = 21 X 3 = 63. RECIPE = (18 + 5) X 3 = 23 X 3 = 69.
