Answer 2

Given: 3 means TAP, -7 means PIN, -10 means SIT and -19 means BAT

To find: The number which would mean ZIP

Solution: According to the given question,

TAP is written as 3

PIN is written as -7

SIT is written as -10

BAT is written as -19

On observing the pattern, we can understand that

TAP = 20(place of T in alphabetical order) - 1(place of A) - 16(place of P)

      = 20 - 1 - 16 = 20 - 17 = 3

Similarly, PIN = 16(place of P) - 9(place of I) - 14(place of N)

                       = 16 - 9 - 14 = 16 - 23 = -7

Same follows for SIT and BAT

Hence, ZIP would be

26(place of Z in alphabetical order) - 9(place of I) - 16(place of P)

= 26 - 9 - 16

= 26 - 25 = 1

1 stands for ZIP
