#32 THE VALUE OF GOLD


In Cherryland the people use a strange system to evaluate their goods. Find out how it works. What's the value of gold?

brass -> 14
water -> 15
lead -> 16
silver -> 30
platinum -> 43
gold -> ?


Correct answer: 26

Explanation:

The name Cherryland contains a little hint: Cherry is a producer of keyboards, so this coding should have to do something with keyboards. Just sum up the numbers above the letters on a standard US keyboard, see image below.
