A55
B34 ✓ Correct
C50
D49
Correct answer: (B) 34 — BASIC equals 34, so that is the answer.
Explanation
★BASIC equals 34, so that is the answer.
★Each word's value is the sum of the position numbers of its letters.
★H is 8 and E is 5, and 8 plus 5 is 13, which confirms the rule.
★For BASIC the positions are B is 2, A is 1, S is 19, I is 9 and C is 3.
★Adding these gives 2 plus 1 plus 19 plus 9 plus 3.
★This total is 34.
