In a certain code language, 'UNITED' is coded as '89' and 'SHOP' is coded as '50'. How will 'TRANSIT' be coded in that language?

  1. A
    90
  2. B
    88
  3. C
    79
  4. D
    93

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's find the sum of positional values of letters for each word.For UNITED:U = 21, N = 14, I = 9, T = 20, E = 5, D = 4 To get 89: . Let's see if 16 is related to the word (e.g., number of letters something, or a constant).For SHOP:S = 19, H = 8, O = 15, P = 16 Given code is 50, which means . This breaks the constant addition logic.Let's look at the opposite positions (27 - standard position):For UNITED:U 6, N 13, I 18, T 7, E 22, D 23 This perfectly matches the given value of 89!Let's verify with SHOP:S 8, H 19, O 12, P 11 This also perfectly matches!Now, let's calculate the sum of opposite positional values for TRANSIT:T 7R 9A 26N 13S 8I 18T 7
