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

THE LOGIC FOLLOWED HERE IS :

K → (POSITIONAL VALUE) → 11 × 3 = 33

O → (POSITIONAL VALUE) → 15 × 3 = 45

S → (POSITIONAL VALUE) → 19 × 3 = 57

H → (POSITIONAL VALUE) → 8 × 3 = 24

I → (POSITIONAL VALUE) → 9 × 3 = 27

SIMILARLY

G → (POSITIONAL VALUE) → 7 × 3 = 21

O → (POSITIONAL VALUE) → 15 × 3 = 45

M → (POSITIONAL VALUE) → 13 × 3 = 39

T → (POSITIONAL VALUE) → 20 × 3 = 60

I → (POSITIONAL VALUE) → 9 × 3 = 27
