Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e.1118168. 

Logic used : Letter(Alphabetic Position) + 3

'FILM' is written as '9121516'

⇒F + 3 = 6 + 3 = 9

I + 3 = 9 + 3 = 12

L + 3 = 12 + 3 = 15

M + 3 = 13 + 3 = 16

⇒'EAST' is written as '842223'

E + 3 = 5 + 3 = 8

A + 3 = 1 + 3 = 4

S + 3 = 19 + 3 = 22

T + 3 = 20 + 3 = 23

Similarly,

'HOME' be written

H + 3 = 8 + 3 = 11

O + 3 = 15 + 3 =18

M + 3 = 13 + 3 = 16

E + 3 = 5 + 3 = 8

Hence, the correct answer is 1118168.
