Question
If in a certain code language "F" is coded as 6, "CAJ" is coded as 3110 and "FEAR" is coded as 65118, then how would "HAIR" be coded in that code language? Ops: A. 81189 B. 81918 C. 18819 D. 18981
Solution
The first step is to understand the coding pattern. In this case, it seems that each letter is being coded as its position in the English alphabet.
For example, "F" is the 6th letter of the alphabet, so it's coded as 6. "C" is the 3rd letter, "A" is the 1st, and "J" is the 10th, so "CAJ" is coded as 3110. "F" is the 6th, "E" is the 5th, "A" is the 1st, and "R" is the 18th, so "FEAR" is coded as 65118.
Following this pattern, "HAIR" would be coded as follows:
"H" is the 8th letter of the alphabet. "A" is the 1st letter of the alphabet. "I" is the 9th letter of the alphabet. "R" is the 18th letter of the alphabet.
So, "HAIR" would be coded as 81918. Therefore, the answer is B. 81918.
