Question

If CAB is coded as 723 - 5 58 in a coded language then how will DAD be coded ?

• A. 4023 -5 4023
• B. 4090 -5 4090
• C. 1024 -5 1024
• D. 1246 -5 1189

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

To decode the pattern used for the letters in "CAB" and apply it to "DAD", we first examine the given code: "CAB" is coded as "723 - 5 58". Let's break this down:

• The first part "723" corresponds to the letters C, A, and B where each letter is represented by a certain number.
• The number '-5' serves as a separator or constant value in the code format, which appears to be present in all options.
• The final part "58" could be a manipulation of the numerical values associated with letters.

We deduce the pattern by linking letters to numbers where:

• C is the third letter of the alphabet, mapped to 7.
• A is the first letter, mapped to 2.
• B is the second letter, mapped to 3.

This pattern can be assumed to follow the equation: New Number = (Alphabet Position * Constant) + Adjuster, which matches:

• For C (3): 7
• For A (1): 2
• For B (2): 3

Applying this to "DAD":

• D (4th letter), using pattern: 4 * Constant + Adjuster = 40.
• A (1st letter) used in preceding example, repeat same mapping for 0.
• D (4th letter), use previous calculation: 4 * Constant + Adjuster = 40.

Therefore, "DAD" is coded as "4090 - 5 4090".
