4. In a certain code language, 'GLOVE' is coded as 148. How will 'OBDURATE' be coded in that language? [S.S.C CGL 19/04/2022 (Morning)]

Correct Answer: (c) 520
Solution:(Sum of the opposite of place value of all the letters) × (number of vowels)
O = 15 → Opposite letter L = 12
B = 2 → Opposite letter Y = 25
D = 4 → Opposite letter W = 23
U = 21 → Opposite letter F = 6
R = 18 → Opposite letter I = 9
A = 1 → Opposite letter Z = 26
T = 20 → Opposite letter G = 7
E = 5 → Opposite letter V = 22

Number of vowels in OBDURATE = 4

(12 + 25 + 23 + 6 + 9 + 26 + 7 + 22) × 4 ⇒ 130 × 4 = 520
