Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option B

64

64

Solution :

The correct option is 64.

To find the code for the letter 'H', let's analyze the pattern by determining the standard alphabetical positions of the given letters (where A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, ..., Z = 26):

1. 'D' is coded as '16':
The alphabetical position of D is 4.

42=16

2. 'B' is coded as '4':
The alphabetical position of B is 2.

22=4

3. 'T' is coded as '400':
The alphabetical position of T is 20.

202=400

We can see that the logic used here is squaring the numerical position of each letter in the English alphabet.

Applying this logic to find the code for 'H':
The alphabetical position of H is 8.

82=64

Therefore, 'H' will be coded as 64 in the same language.
