SPORTS : 214 :: SOCIAL : ?

Options:

120

118

116

60

Correct Answer:

118

Explanation:

SPORTS : 214 :: SOCIAL : ?

The logic followed here is:

Addition of the place value of alphabets  and then multiply by 2.

The place value of  SPORTS

S → 19

P → 16

O → 15

R → 18

T →  20

S → 19

SPORTS = 19 + 16 + 15 + 18 + 20 + 19 = 107 and 107 × 2 = 214

Similarly

SOCIAL

S → 19

O → 15

C → 3

I  → 9

A  →  1

L → 12

SOCIAL = 19 + 15 + 3 + 9 + 1 + 12 = 59 AND 59 × 2 = 118
