In a certain code language, ‘VTPM’ is coded as ‘37’ and ‘CGNK’ is coded as ‘73’. How will ‘MVLC’ be coded in the same language?

Question

Accepted Answer

Step 1: Assign numerical values to each letter based on their position in the alphabet (A=1, B=2, ..., Z=26).

For 'VTPM':
V = 22, T = 20, P = 16, M = 13
Sum = 22 + 20 + 16 + 13 = 71
Given code = 37

For 'CGNK':
C = 3, G = 7, N = 14, K = 11
Sum = 3 + 7 + 14 + 11 = 35
Given code = 73

Step 2: Observe the relationship between the sum of letter values and the code.
For 'VTPM', sum is 71, code is 37.
For 'CGNK', sum is 35, code is 73.

Step 3: Notice that 37 + 71 = 108 and 73 + 35 = 108.
So, the code is 108 minus the sum of the letter values.

Step 4: For 'MVLC':
M = 13, V = 22, L = 12, C = 3
Sum = 13 + 22 + 12 + 3 = 50

Step 5: Code = 108 - 50 = 58

Therefore, 'MVLC' is coded as 58.
