The correct option is A 15 write the position number of each letter of the word H O T E L and add them together H O T E L →8+15+20+5+12=60→8+15+20+5+12=60 On dividing the above number by 5 ( number of letter in word) we get 12 which represent the code of the word HOTEL Apply the same technique to the word U R V A S I URVASHI →21+18+22+1+19+9=90→21+18+22+1+19+9=90 The word UR V A S I contains 6 letter On dividing 90 by 6, we get 15, which is the required.
