Correct Answer: 13
Solution :
Given:
LANDS is written as 10, and TRAM is written as 13.
Add the position values of the letters of LANDS, and then divide the resultant by the number of letters in it, to get the required code –
(12 + 1 + 14 + 4 + 19) ÷ 5 = 10
And, TRAM is written as 13 –
(20 + 18 + 1 + 13) ÷ 4 = 13
Similarly, follow the same pattern for TASTE→
(20 + 1 + 19 + 20 + 5) ÷ 5 = 13
So, TASTE can be coded as 13. Hence, the third option is correct.
