Question

If in a coding system, SUBSTANCE is coded as 101 and SUPREME is coded as 94, then how will PORTRAIT be coded in the same coding system?

• A. 116
• B. 114
• C. 115
• D. 117

Answer 1

Answer:

B. 114

S(19) + U(21) + B(2) + S(19) + T(20) + A(1) + N(14) + C(3) + E(5) = 104 104- 3 = 101 SUPREME = 97; 97 – 3 = 94 Similarly, P(16) + O(15) + R(18) + T(20) + R(18) + A(1) + I(9) + T(20) = 117 117 – 3 = 114
