**********************************************************
THE LOGIC FOLLOWED HERE IS:
J = 10
ACT IS WRITTEN AS 24
THE PLACE VALUE OF A IS 1
THE PLACE VALUE OF C IS 3
THE PLACE VALUE OF T IS 20
ACT = 1 + 3 + 20 = 24
SIMILARLY
BEAR= ?
THE PLACE VALUE OF B IS 2
THE PLACE VALUE OF E IS 5
THE PLACE VALUE OF A IS 1
THE PLACE VALUE OF R IS 18
BEAR = 2 + 5 + 1 + 18 = 26
