Correct Answer: 7
Solution :
Given:
RHETORIC is coded as 6 and GURGLE is coded as 4.
Subtract 2 from the total number of letters in the word RHETORIC to obtain the required code –
RHETORIC: 8 – 2 = 6
Thus, RHETORIC is coded as 6.
And in, GURGLE is coded as 4 –
GURGLE: 6 – 2 = 4
Thus, GURGLE is coded as 4.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for SIGNATURE –
SIGNATURE: 9 – 2 = 7
Thus, SIGNATURE is coded as 7. Hence, the second option is correct.
