    If E = 5 and HOTEL = 12, then how will you code LAMB?

    A)  7

    B)  10      

    C)  26                               

    D)  28

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    We have A = 1, B = 2, C = 3,...., Y = 25, Z = 26 Clearly, the code for a word is obtained by dividing the sum of the individual values of its letters by the number of letters in the word. Thus, \[HOTEL=\frac{H+O+T+E+L}{5}\]             \[=\frac{8+15+20+5+12}{5}=\frac{60}{5}=12\] So, \[LAMB=\frac{L+A+M+B}{4}\]             \[=\frac{12+4+13+2}{4}=\frac{28}{4}=7\]
