If in a scheme the word 'FATHER' is coded as '104', how will the word 'MOTHER' be coded in the same scheme?

A104

B83 ✓ Correct

C87

D102

Correct answer: (B) 83

Explanation

'MOTHER' is coded as 83.

Use reverse alphabet values: A = 26, B = 25, ..., Z = 1.

FATHER = 21 + 26 + 7 + 19 + 22 + 9 = 104 confirms the rule.

MOTHER = 14 + 12 + 7 + 19 + 22 + 9.

The sum is 83.
