Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$8$4$Wecanobservethefollowing:$\rightarrow$Firstnumberofcode:-\left(placevalueoflastletterinreverseorder\right)+1$\rightarrow$ Symbol of code :- specified for number of letters in corresponding word as follows

3 letter word	&
4 letter word	%
5 letter word	$
6 letter word	*

$\to$ last number of code :- place value of first letter +2
(place value of 'a' is 1 and 'z' is 26 accordingly)
According to above conditions , code for 'Burst' must be
$\Rightarrow$ last letter = $t$ $\Rightarrow$ place value in reverse order(i.e. place value of 'a' will be 26 and of 'z' will be 1 accordingly in reverse order ) = $7$ $\Rightarrow$ First number of code will be = $7+1=8$
$\Rightarrow$ it is a 5 letter word so symbol is \Rightarrow$placevalueoffirstlette{r}^{\prime }{b}^{\prime }=$2\Rightarrow$lastnumberofcodewillbe$2+2=4$Thereforeansweris$C$
