Question: In a certain code language, if OPEN is written as 200, CLOSE is

written as 270, then the word HUT will be written as
A. 150
B. 90
C. 148
D. 217
Answer: D

Explanation: In OPEN O=15, P=16, E=5, N=14.So OPEN=15+16+5+14=50.

50*4=200
In CLOSE C=3, L=12, O=15, S=19, E=5.
So CLOSE 3+12+15+19+5=54. 54*5=270
So in HUT H=8, U=21, T=20. So HUT=8+21+20=49. 49*3=217

Question: In a certain code language, if a word PEN = 35, BOOK = 43, then
PAPER =?
A. 55
B. 56
C. 57
D. 58

Answer: B

Explanation: In the word PEN,

P=16, E=5, N=14
PEN = 16+5+14 = 35
In the word BOOK,
B=2, O=15, K=11
BOOK = 2+15+15+11 = 43
Then PAPER should be P=16, A=1, P=16, E=5, R=18
PAPER = 16+1+16+5+18=56

50/5(total no of letters)=10
In the word CABBAGE,
C=3, A=1, B=2, G=7, E=5
CABBAGE = 3+1+2+2+1+7+5 = 21
21/7(total no of letters)=3
Then ORANGE should be 0=15, R=18, A=1, N=14, G=7, E=5
ORANGE= 15+18+1+14+7+5=60
60/6(total no of letters)=10
