Question

In a certain code language , if the word ENGLISH is coded as 47. The word SPANISH is coded as 68 and the word FRENCH is code as 45, then how is the word CHINESE coded in that language ?

Answer 1

ENGLISH
E = 5, N = 14, G = 7, L = 12, I = 9, S = 19, H = 8
E + N + G + L + I + S + H = 74. So code is 47.
SPANISH
S + P + A + N + I + S + H = 19 + 1 6 + 1 + 14 + 9 + 19 + 8 = 86 = 68
FRENCH
F + R + E + N + C + H = 6 + 18 + 5 + 14 + 3 + 8 = 54 = 45
Therefore,
CHINESE = 3 + 8 + 9 + 14 + 5 + 19 + 5 = 63 = 36.

Hence, the correct answer is 36.
