In a code, if A is 1, B is 2 and so on, what is the sum of the letters in the word CAB?

  • A. 6
  • B. 5
  • C. 7
  • D. 4

Explanation

C is 3, A is 1 and B is 2, and adding them gives 6. Positional coding of this kind is the basis for many number letter questions, so knowing the alphabet positions fluently is worth the effort. A useful anchor is that M is 13, exactly halfway.
