Correct Answer: 83


Solution : Given:
EACH is written as 97, and EASY is written as 64.

Add 6 to the sum of the position values of the opposite letter pairs of the word EACH to get the required code –

LETTERS E A C H
OPPOSITE LETTER PAIRS V Z X S
POSITION VALUE 22 26 24 19

(22 + 26 + 24 + 19) + 6 = 97
Thus, EACH is coded as 97.
And, EASY is written as 64 –

LETTERS E A S Y
OPPOSITE LETTER PAIRS V Z H B
POSITION VALUE 22 26 8 2

(22 + 26 + 8 + 2) + 6 = 64
Thus, EASY is coded as 64.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for ECHO –

LETTERS E C H O
OPPOSITE LETTER PAIRS V X S L
POSITION VALUE 22 24 19 12

(22 + 24 + 19 + 12) + 6 = 83

Thus, ECHO is coded as 83. Hence, the third option is correct.
