The correct answer is option 3 i.e 14152251425229.

Understanding Application

The logic used here is:

The first four letters of the word are replaced by the positional values and the last four letters of the word are replaced by the reverse positional values.

WORKSHOP ⇒ 231518118191211

W⇒ 23

O⇒15

R⇒18

K⇒11

S is opposite to H⇒ H =8

H is opposite to S⇒ H ⇒19

O is opposite to L⇒ L =12

P is opposite to K⇒ K =11

Similarly,

NOVEMBER

N⇒14

O⇒15

V⇒22

E⇒5

M is opposite to N⇒ N = 14

B is opposite to Y⇒ Y = 25

E is opposite to V⇒ V = 22

R  is opposite to I⇒ I = 9

Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.
