Question

If PALAM could be given the code number 43 what code number can be given to SANTACRUZ ?

• A. 75
• B. 85
• C. 120
• D. 123

Answer 1

The correct option is D 123

Given PALAM is coded as 43.
Here, in the given code A = 1,B = 2,C = 3,..., Z = 26 as:
PALAM = P + A + L + A + M = 16 + 1 + 12 + 1 + 13 = 43
Similarly, SANTACRUZ = S + A + N + T + A + C + R + U + Z = 19 + 1 + 14 + 20 + 1 + 3 + 18 + 21 + 26 = 123
Hence, option (D) is the correct answer.
