(b) 96
(c) 97
(d) 98
Answers
Given : In coded language, C=3 and POLICE =60.
To find : POINTER = ?
Solution :
The logic behind it is the addition of the corresponding numbers, if we start numbering the letters in the alphabet in a series, starting with A as 1, B as 2, and so on, Y as 25, Z as 26.
As in :
A=1, B=2, C=3, D=4, E=5,
F=6, G=7, H=8, I=9, J=10,
K=11, L=12, M=13, N=14, O=15,
P=16, Q=17, R=18, S=19, T=20,
U=21, V=22, W=23, X=24, Y=25,
Z=26
DECRYPTING...
C = 3 :
The first value given is C whose value is 3. So, C = 3
The second one is POLICE :
Now, Find the corresponding numbers of each letter in police and sum up them.
As in : P + O + L + I + C + E = 16 + 15 + 12 + 9 + 3 + 5
= 60
So, POLICE = 60.
Finding, POINTER = ?
Now, find the corresponding numbers of the letters present in the word 'POINTER', sum them up.
P + O + I + N + T + E + R = 16 + 15 + 9 + 14 + 20 + 5 + 18
= 97
Therefore, POINTER = 97 (Option C)
