If A = 2, Z = 52 and CAT = 48 and BAT = 46, then what will be the value of RAT + MAT?
A78
B146 ✓ Correct
C68
D148
Correct answer: (B) 146 — The value of RAT plus MAT is 146, so the answer is 146.
Explanation
★The value of RAT plus MAT is 146, so the answer is 146.
★Each letter is given its position number in the alphabet.
★The position numbers of a word are added and then doubled.
★For RAT the positions 18, 1 and 20 add to 39.
★For MAT the positions 13, 1 and 20 add to 34.
★Together 39 and 34 make 73, and doubling 73 gives 146.
★So the answer is 146.
