In a code language, 'PEN' is coded as ‘70’ and 'NEST' is coded as ‘116’. How will 'PEON' be coded in the same language?

The correct answer is 100.

Pattern / Logic:
The code for a given word is calculated by summing the alphabetical positional values of all its letters and then multiplying that total sum by 2.

The alphabetical positional values for the relevant letters are:
E = 5, N = 14, O = 15, P = 16, S = 19, T = 20

1. For the word 'PEN':
Positions of letters: P = 16, E = 5, N = 14
$\text{Sum of positional values}=16+5+14=35$
$\text{Code}=35\times 2=70$

2. For the word 'NEST':
Positions of letters: N = 14, E = 5, S = 19, T = 20
$\text{Sum of positional values}=14+5+19+20=58$
$\text{Code}=58\times 2=116$

3. For the word 'PEON':
Positions of letters: P = 16, E = 5, O = 15, N = 14
$\text{Sum of positional values}=16+5+15+14=50$
$\text{Code}=50\times 2=100$

Therefore, 'PEON' is coded as 100.
