sum of "SAT" = 41
from the formula
Sum(µat) = 60 - #µ
where # is the number of the letter(µ) befor "at" in the word "µat"
then # (s) = 19
Sum(sat) = 60 - #(s)
Sum(sat) = 60 - 19 = 41

All words have three letters ending with at.
The number decreases by 1 if you give the next letter for the first place.
bat is 58,
cat 57,
dat 56,....
...
sat = 41

41 - No problem
It is only the first letter that is being changed. As you go through the alphabet, each letter reduces the numerical value by 1.

If you count the letter "ñ", it would be 40, if not, it would be 41.=)
