In a certain code language, “FRAK” is written as “35” and “MALT” is written as “45”. How is “TRIM” written in that code language? Correct Answer 59

The positional value table is shown below.

 

Given: FRAK - 35, MALT - 45, TRIM - ?

Pattern: One is subtracted from the sum of the positional values of all the letters in a word.

FRAK - 35

Letters F R A K
Positional Values 6 18 1 11

 

FRAK = 6 + 18 + 1 + 11 = 36 - 1 = 35

MALT - 45

Letters M A L T
Positional Values 13 1 12 20

 

MALT = 13 + 1 + 12 + 20 = 46 - 1 = 45

Similarly,

TRIM - ?

Letters T R I M
Positional Values 20 18 9 13

 

TRIM = 20 + 18 + 9 + 13 = 60 - 1 = 59

Hence, 59 is correct.
