Correct Answer: 108
Solution :
Given:
BASE is coded as 27.
Add the position value of the letters of the word BASE, to obtain the required code –
B→2; A→1; S→19; E→5
Now, add the position values –
2 + 1 + 19 + 5 = 27
Thus, BASE is coded as 27.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for COLLECTION –
C→3; O→15; L→12; L→12; E→5; C→3; T→20; I→9; O→15; N→14
Now, add the position values –
3 + 15 + 12 + 12 + 5 + 3 + 20 + 9 + 15 + 14 = 108
Thus, COLLECTION is coded as 108. Hence, the third option is correct.
