If A = 2, Z = 52 and CAT = 48 and BAT = 46, then what will be the value of RAT + MAT?

RAT plus MAT equals 146 under the rule value equals twice the alphabet position.

A at position 1 gives 2 and Z at position 26 gives 52, so each letter is position times two.

RAT is R eighteen plus A one plus T twenty equals thirty-nine positions, doubled to 78.

MAT is M thirteen plus A one plus T twenty equals thirty-four positions, doubled to 68.

Adding 78 and 68 yields 146.
