**********************************************************

THE LOGIC FOLLOWED HERE IS

HERE

R(18) → (+2) → 18 + 2 →  20

U (21) → (+2) → 21 +2 → 23

N (14) → (+2) → 14 +2 → 16

AND

P(16) → (+2) → 16 + 2 →  20

E (5) → (+2) → 5 + 2 → 7

N (14) → (+2) → 14 +2 → 16

SIMILARLY

RANSOM

R(18) → (+2) → 18 + 2 →  20

A (1) → (+2) → 1 +2 → 3

N (14) → (+2) → 14 +2 → 16

S(19) → (+2) → 19 + 2 →  21

O(15) → (+2) → 15 +2 → 17

M  (13) → (+2) → 13 +2 → 15
