If in a certain code language 'PERFECT' is written as '116', then how ...
Here the alphabets are numbered in reverse order like
A B C DEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
26 25 24 23 And so on
so by this method ,
P=11,E=22,R=9,F=21,E=22,C=24,T=7
therefore,PERFECT=11+22+9+21+22+24+7
=116
so DIVORCE will be=23+18+5+12+9+24+22
=113 ANS

Answer:
To get the code language of the word 'DIVORCE' in the given code language, we need to understand the logic behind the code.
Logic:
Each letter of the English alphabet is assigned a unique number, starting from 'A' as 1, 'B' as 2, and so on till 'Z' as 26.
Using this logic, we can find the code for 'PERFECT' as follows:
P=16, E=5, R=18, F=6, E=5, C=3, T=20.
Adding these numbers, we get:
16+5+18+6+5+3+20 = 73.
Hence, the code for 'PERFECT' is '73'.
Now, let's apply the same logic to find the code for 'DIVORCE':
D=4, I=9, V=22, O=15, R=18, C=3, E=5.
Adding these numbers, we get:
4+9+22+15+18+3+5 = 76.
Therefore, the code for 'DIVORCE' in the given code language is '76'.
Hence, the correct answer is option (d) 117.
