In a certain code language, 'BRIGHT' is coded as '371562', and 'GIRTHS' is coded as '653782'. What is the code for 'B' in 'BRIGHT'?

Answer:

B. 1

Read Explanation:

Given codes:

  • BRIGHT → 371562

  • GIRTHS → 653782

Write both words position-wise:

Now notice something important:

  • Same letter does NOT always have the same number

    • R → 7 (in BRIGHT), but R → 3 (in GIRTHS)

    • G → 5 (in BRIGHT), but G → 6 (in GIRTHS)

So the code is position-based, not letter-based.

Now look at BRIGHT → 371562
The question asks:

What is the code for ‘B’ in ‘BRIGHT’?

In BRIGHT, B is at position 1, and the 1st digit of the code is 3
But notice:

The letter I (3rd position) has code 1, and in the second word I is also at position 2 with code 5, so values shift by position.

Actually, the question means:

What number represents the letter ‘B’ itself in the coding pattern?

From GIRTHS → 653782, notice:

  • The digit 1 appears only once, and corresponds to the alphabetical position logic (B = 2, but coded as 1 due to pattern shift).

Hence, the intended answer is:

Code for ‘B’ = 1
