Question : Directions: In a certain code, if AMOUNT is written as BNPTMS, how is AROUND written in that code?
Option 1: BSPUNT
Option 2: BSUPTN
Option 3: BSPTMC
Option 4: ZSPVOE
Correct Answer: BSPTMC
Solution :
Given:
AMOUNT is written as BNPTMS.
Divide the letters of the word into two halves. Then, a
dd one to the place values of the first half and subtract one from the place value of the second half of the letters of the given words.
AMOUNT is coded as BNPTMS –
Divide AMOUNT into two halves→AMO / UNT
Now, add 1 to the first half (AMO) and subtract 1 from the second half (UNT) –
A + 1 = B; M + 1 = N; O + 1 = P; U – 1 = T; N – 1 = M; T – 1 = S
Similarly, AROUND is coded as –
Divide AROUND into two halves→ARO / UND
A + 1 = B; R + 1 = S; O + 1 = P; U – 1 = T; N – 1 = M; D – 1 = C
So, the AROUND is written as BSPTMC in that code language. Hence, the third option is correct.
