Question

    In a certain code language, ‘STEM’ is written as

    ‘56’, and ‘BRAG’ is written as ‘27’. How will ‘GRIM’ be written in that language?
    A 46 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 54 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 44 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 38 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The logic followed here: (Sum total of positional value of all letters) – [1] = ‘Code’ STEM →   S (19) + T (20) + E (5) + M (13) – [1] →  57 – [1] = 56 BRAG →   B (2) + R (18) + A (1) + G (7) – [1] →  28 – [1] = 27 Similarly, GRIM →   G (7) + R (18) + I (9) + M (13) – [1] →   47 – [1] = 46   Thus, ‘GRIM’ will be coded as ‘46’. Hence, the correct answer is (A).
