Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 56454259.

The logic used here is:

‘SOMEONE’ is written as ‘1645655’

S = 19 = 1 + 9 = 10 = 1 + 0 = 1

O = 15 = 1 + 5 = 6

M = 13 = 1 + 3 = 4

E = 5

O = 15 = 1 + 5 = 6

N = 14 = 1 + 4 = 5

E = 5

‘BRINJAL’ is written as ‘2995113’

B = 2

R = 18 = 1 + 8 = 9

I = 9

N = 14 = 1 + 4 = 5

J = 10 = 1 + 0 = 1

A = 1

L = 12 = 1 + 2 = 3

Similarly;

Code for the word NOVEMBER:

N = 14 = 1 + 4 = 5

O = 15 = 1 + 5 = 6

V = 22 = 2 + 2 = 4

E = 5

M = 13 = 1 + 3 = 4

B = 2

E = 5

R = 18 = 1 + 8 = 9

Hence, 56454259 is the correct answer.
