Correct answer: B
Step 1: Identify the pattern in the given codes.
The logic is: (Sum of alphabetical positions of letters) × (Number of letters in the word × 2).
For RAT: (18 + 1 + 20) = 39. Number of letters = 3.
Code = 39 × (3 × 2) = 39 × 6 = 234.
For FILM: (6 + 9 + 12 + 13) = 40. Number of letters = 4.
Code = 40 × (4 × 2) = 40 × 8 = 320.
Step 2: Apply the pattern to 'BRAIN'.
Sum of letter positions in BRAIN = B(2) + R(18) + A(1) + I(9) + N(14) = 44.
Number of letters in BRAIN = 5.
Step 3: Calculate the final code.
Code = 44 × (5 × 2) = 44 × 10 = 440.
Final Answer: Option 2
