Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 68

Understanding Application

The alphabets from A to Z takes numerical position value from 1 to 26.

N (14): 14 × 2 = 28

ORE = 76

O (15) + R (18) + E (5) = 38 × 2 = 76

Similarly, for PALE:

P (16) + A (1) + L (12) + E (5) = 34 × 2 = 68
