Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 21435438.

1. First the vowels are coded as follows: A = 1; E = 2; I = 3; O = 4; U = 5

2. Consonants with single-digit position values are multiplied by 2 and Consonants with double-digit positional values are added by 2.

3. After that reverse the numbers obtained.

D = 4 × 2 = 8, I = 3, V = 22 = 2 + 2 = 4, U = 5, L = 12 = 1 + 2 = 3, G = 7 × 2 = 14, E = 2

DIVULGE = 21435438
