I. 52
B. RING
II. 50
C. SOLD
III. 49
D. FROM
IV. 48

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Options

A

A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I

B

A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I

C

A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV

D

A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I

Correct Answer :

A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I

Solution :

The correct option is A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I.

To find the correct match, we need to determine the rule that relates each word in List – I to its corresponding code in List – II.
The rule is determined by assigning each letter of the alphabet its standard numerical position (where A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, ..., Z = 26) and calculating the sum of these positions for each word.

Let's calculate the sum for each word step-by-step:

1. A. BOLT
The individual alphabetical positions of the letters in BOLT are:
B = 2
O = 15
L = 12
T = 20

Now, we find the sum of these values:

2+15+12+20=49

Thus, BOLT corresponds to 49 (which is III). Therefore, A matches with III.

2. B. RING
The individual alphabetical positions of the letters in RING are:
R = 18
I = 9
N = 14
G = 7

Now, we find the sum of these values:

18+9+14+7=48

Thus, RING corresponds to 48 (which is IV). Therefore, B matches with IV.

3. C. SOLD
The individual alphabetical positions of the letters in SOLD are:
S = 19
O = 15
L = 12
D = 4

Now, we find the sum of these values:

19+15+12+4=50

Thus, SOLD corresponds to 50 (which is II). Therefore, C matches with II.

4. D. FROM
The individual alphabetical positions of the letters in FROM are:
F = 6
R = 18
O = 15
M = 13

Now, we find the sum of these values:

6+18+15+13=52

Thus, FROM corresponds to 52 (which is I). Therefore, D matches with I.

Combining all the matched pairs, we get:
A – III, B – IV, C – II, D – I
