If TABLE is coded as 45 in a certain coding scheme, how will the word CHAIR be coded?

A44 ✓ Correct

B43

C42

D40

Correct answer: (A) 44

Explanation

CHAIR is coded as 44.

Add alphabet positions, then add the number of letters (5).

TABLE = 20+1+2+12+5 = 40, plus 5 = 45 fits.

CHAIR = 3+8+1+9+18 = 39.

Then 39 + 5 = 44.
