Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e 12303622

Understanding Application

The logic used here is:

L ⇒ 12 × 2 = 24

A ⇒ 1 × 2 = 2

M ⇒ 13 × 2 = 26

P ⇒ 16 × 2 = 32

 

Similarly,

Code for the word FORK:

F ⇒ 6 × 2 = 12

O ⇒ 15 × 2 = 30

R ⇒ 18 × 2 = 36

K ⇒ 11 × 2 = 22

Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.
