    D) \[23-15-13-1-14\]

    E) None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Explanation Option (a) is correct. Clearly, each letter is coded by the numeral obtained by subtracting from 27, the numeral denoting the position of the letter in the English alphabet. W, O, M, A, N are 23rd, 15th, 13th, 1st and 14th letters. So, their codes are (27 - 23), (27 - 15), (27 - 13), (27 - 1), (27- 14) i.e. 4, 12, 14, 26, 13 respectively.
