In a certain code language, ‘ASK’ is written as ‘62’ and ‘BYE’ is written as ‘64’. How will ‘CRY’ be written in that language?

The correct answer is 92.

To crack the code, we need to find what operation links the letters of each word to the given number. The key insight is to use the standard alphabetical position of each letter (A=1, B=2, C=3, … Z=26).

Step 1: Decode 'ASK' = 62

Find the positional values of each letter:

A = 1,   S = 19,   K = 11

Sum of positions:

1+19+11=31

Now multiply the sum by 2:

31\times 2=62 ✓

Step 2: Verify with 'BYE' = 64

Find the positional values:

B = 2,   Y = 25,   E = 5

Sum of positions:

2+25+5=32

Multiply by 2:

32\times 2=64 ✓

The pattern is confirmed: Code value = (Sum of letter positions) × 2

Step 3: Apply the rule to 'CRY'

Find the positional values:

C = 3,   R = 18,   Y = 25

Sum of positions:

3+18+25=46

Multiply by 2:

46\times 2=92

Therefore, 'CRY' will be written as 92 in that code language.
