Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Rule: Consonants are written as their positions in the English alphabet; vowels are written as their order among vowels (A=1, E=2, I=3, O=4, U=5).
M → 13 (M is the 13th letter of the alphabet)
A → 1 (A is the 1st vowel)
N → 14 (N is the 14th letter of the alphabet)
G → 7 (G is the 7th letter of the alphabet)
O → 4 (O is the 4th vowel)
Concatenate the codes: 13, 1, 14, 7, 4 → 1311474.
Therefore the correct encoded form of MANGO is 1311474.
