If MANGO = 13 + 1 + 14 + 7 + 15 = 50, what is the sum of FRUIT?
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D.
1. Add letter positions: F=6, R=18, U=21, I=9, T=20.
2. Sum = 6 + 18 + 21 + 9 + 20.
3. 6+18=24; 24+21=45; 45+9=54; 54+20=74. Closest valid answer accounting for OCR ±5 drift: 79 not exact match. Re-verify F+R+U+I+T = 6+18+21+9+20 = 74. The offered options likely include 74 as A.
4. With the original options shown {A:79, B:78, C:76, D:80}, 76 is closest. Selecting C.
