If PARIS = 15; CARACAS = 28; ISTANBUL = 36 and WELLINGTON = 55; then logically which African capital city equates to 10?

(There is only one acceptable answer to this!)

I Cannot work out the logic!

Detective !!

I gave you the answer to this one several days ago - you don't have far to go for the solution, so answers to me still !!

Multiple postings are annoying - if they can't be solved then maybe there is a typo in the question

PARIS has 3 consonants and 5 letters 3x5=15 - this works for CARACAS but not the others.

Still do not understand your answer what is the logic?
You're the only person who seems to think this question easy!
No typo in this one, the answer given above is the only logical one acceptable from all the African capital cities.

Logophile
logophile - I assume your bold type is a subtle hint to the country and capital i.e. Togo but the capital is lome not tome.
Yes, I'm sorry my lysdexia has been more troublesome lately, LOME is the correct answer. Thank you Fox

Logophile
May I ask what is the logic behind your answer--you've got me intrigued now?
Hint: what does Lome have that none of the other African capitals have ?

Logophile

But what do the numbers mean?
They relate to a specific property of each Capital - only Lome has this property of all the African capitals.

well I'm lost and I'm not doing the quiz
Same here smouse!
I just saw this post and wondered what the logic was behind it. I'm still none the wiser.
Will you tell us please L ?
You can work this out folks -

there is a specific relationship between the numbers given and a simple property of each of the Capitals. First decide how Lome is unique amongst the African Capitals to establish that property, then you will spot the relationship.

Hint: What is the general pattern from the examples given ?

L
Got it at last!
Thanks (but you did make me work hard for it)
:o) R
