Assign each letter its standard alphabetical position (A=1, B=2... Z=26) and simply calculate the sum of these positional values.
Assign each letter its standard alphabetical position (A=1, B=2... Z=26) and simply calculate the sum of these positional values.
Mapping Letter Values
Identify the positional value of each letter in the word DOG: D is the 4th letter, O is the 15th letter, and G is the 7th letter in the alphabet.
Summation Calculation
Add the identified positional values together: 4 (D) + 15 (O) + 7 (G) = 26.
B: 28 is incorrect as the sum of 4, 15, and 7 does not equal 28. C: 30 is incorrect as it exceeds the accurate sum by 4. D: 32 is incorrect as it exceeds the accurate sum by 6.
A is correct because the word DOG is encoded by summing the numerical positions of each letter in the English alphabet, which results in 4 + 15 + 7 = 26.
For letter-based coding questions, always check the alphabetical position (A=1, B=2) first; if the sum doesn't match, look for reverse position (Z=1, Y=2) or vowel-consonant specific transformations.
