- C.
44
- D.
41
46
Explanation
Each letter is assigned a numeric value equal to twice its position in the standard English alphabet (A=1,B=2,…,Z=26).
The general formula used here is:
Code Value=(Sum of positional values of the letters)×2
Let's verify the given conditions:
For Z:
The alphabetical position of Z=26.
Value=26×2=52
For ACT:
The alphabetical positions are A=1, C=3, and T=20.
Sum=1+3+20=24
Value=24×2=48
Applying the exact same logic to find the value of BAT:
The alphabetical positions are B=2, A=1, and T=20.
Sum=2+1+20=23
Value=23×2=46
Therefore, BAT is equal to 46.
