If MALE is coded as 31 and FEMALE is coded as 42, then how will ADULT be coded in the same scheme?

A35

B53

C58 ✓ Correct

D62

Correct answer: (C) 58

Explanation

ADULT is coded as 58.

The code is the sum of alphabet positions (A = 1).

MALE = 13+1+12+5 = 31 and FEMALE = 6+5+13+1+12+5 = 42 fit.

ADULT = 1+4+21+12+20.

This sum = 58.
