If BOOK is coded as 2-15-15-11, how is CAP coded?
- A. 3-1-16
- B. 3-2-16
- C. 2-1-16
- D. 3-1-15
Explanation
Each letter is replaced by its position in the alphabet, so C is 3, A is 1 and P is 16. Verifying with the example, B is 2, O is 15 and K is 11, which matches. Miscounting P as 15 is the usual slip, since O is 15 and P follows it.
