In a certain code language, SICK is coded as 168 and TAR is coded as 117. How will NOMAD be coded in that language?

Let's find the logic using positional values of letters from the opposite side (reverse alphabetical positions) or standard positions.
Test 1: Reverse positional values

S→8

I→18

C→24

K→16
Sum of reverse values =8+18+24+16=66
Let's see relationship with 168: 66×something does not match directly.

Test 2: Standard positional values

S=19, I=9, C=3, K=11
Sum =19+9+3+11=42
Multiply by the number of letters (4): 42×4=168. This fits perfectly!

Let's verify with TAR:

T=20, A=1, R=18
Sum =20+1+18=39
Multiply by the number of letters (3): 39×3=117. This fits perfectly!

Applying the same logic to NOMAD:

N=14

O=15

M=13

A=1

D=4
Sum =14+15+13+1+4=47

Number of letters in NOMAD =5
Code =47×5=235
