Question

If PET=4, LET=3, JEY=2. Then what is the value of XET?

Answer 1

P → 16, E → 5, T → 20, L → 12, J → 10, Y → 25
PET → 16 ÷ (20 ÷ 5) = 4 
LET → 12 ÷ (20 ÷ 5) = 3 
JEY → 10 ÷ (25 ÷ 5) = 2 
XET → 24 ÷ (20 ÷ 5) = 6

Answer 2

Given,

PET=4, LET=3, JEY=2.

To find,

The value of XET.

Solution,

The value of XET will be 6.

We can easily solve this problem by following the given process.

Now, if we look at the given values then we notice that there is a specific pattern that is being followed.

The letters are given numerical values according to their sequence in alphabets. For example, A is the first letter so its value is 1 and the value of Z is 26.

Now, in making a word out of the three letters, the pattern followed is to divide the value of the first number by (the value of the third number ÷ the value of the second number).

Now, we have the values:

P = 16, E = 5, T = 20, L = 12, J = 10, Y = 25, X = 24

So, the value of PET is obtained by following the given method:

PET = 16 ÷ (20 ÷ 5)

PET = 16 ÷ 4

PET = 4

In the same way, the value of XET will be:

XET = 24 ÷ (20 ÷ 5)

XET = 24 ÷ (20 ÷ 5)XET = 24 ÷ 4

XET = 24 ÷ (20 ÷ 5)XET = 24 ÷ 4XET = 6

Hence, the value of XET is 6.
