In a certain code language, 'ASK' is written as '100', and 'BAG' is written as '142'. How will 'DIE' be written in that language?

  1. A
    134
  2. B
    144
  3. C
    118
  4. D
    126

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's find the logic by looking at the positional values of the letters in the English alphabet:
For 'ASK':

A = 1, S = 19, K = 11

Sum of positions = 1+19+11=31

Opposite positional values: A → 26, S → 8, K → 16

Sum of opposite positions = 26+8+16=50

Notice that 50×2=100.

Let's check this logic with 'BAG':

Opposite positional values: B → 25, A → 26, G → 20

Sum of opposite positions = 25+26+20=71

Multiply by 2: 71×2=142.
The logic is verified: (Sum of opposite positional values) × 2.

Now apply this logic to 'DIE':

Opposite letters: D → W (23), I → R (18), E → V (22)

Sum of opposite positions = 23+18+22=63

Multiply by 2: 63×2=126.
