If in a certain code language "FILE" equals to 16 and "REASON" equals to 24, then what is the value of "FARMERS"?  Ops:   A. 28    B. 49    C. 35    D. 44

Solution

The code seems to be based on the number of letters in each word. "FILE" has 4 letters, and 4 squared (44) equals 16. "REASON" has 6 letters, and 6 squared (66) equals 36. However, the code for "REASON" is given as 24, not 36. This suggests that the code might be the square of the number of letters, minus 12.

Let's apply this to "FARMERS". "FARMERS" has 7 letters. 7 squared (7*7) equals 49. If we subtract 12 from 49, we get 37. However, 37 is not an option in the multiple choices.

This suggests that the coding rule might be different. Let's try another approach.

If we look at the word "FILE", it has 4 letters and the code is 16. If we divide 16 by 4, we get 4.

If we look at the word "REASON", it has 6 letters and the code is 24. If we divide 24 by 6, we get 4.

This suggests that the code might be 4 times the number of letters in the word.

Let's apply this to "FARMERS". "FARMERS" has 7 letters. 7 times 4 equals 28.

So, the value of "FARMERS" in this code language is 28. The answer is A. 28.
