Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 132618181826722.

The logic used here is:

'FOSTER' is coded as '61219202218'

F = 6

Opposite of O = L = 12

S = 19

T = 20

Opposite of E = V = 22

R = 18

'CARGO' is coded as '32618712'

C = 3

Opposite of A = Z = 26

R = 18

G = 7

Opposite of O = L = 12

Similarly;

Code for the word MARRIAGE:

M = 13

Opposite of A = Z = 26

R = 18

R = 18

Opposite of I = R = 18

Opposite of A = Z = 26

G = 7

Opposite of E = V = 22

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
