If REASON is coded as 5 and BELIEVED as 7, what is the code number for GOVERNMENT? 

Code for word = number of letter in word – 1

REASON is coded as 5 ⇒ There are 6 letter in word (6 – 1 = 5)

BELIEVED is coded as 8 ⇒ There are 8 letter in word (8 – 1 = 7)

In word “GOVERNMENT” there are total 10 letter so code for this will be 10 – 1 = 9.

Hence, Code for “GOVERNMENT” will be “9”
