Options:

23586

54268

14268

15426

Correct Answer:

14268

Explanation:

1   2    3    4   5    6   7     8    9  10  11  12  13

 A   B   C    D   E    F   G    H    I    J    K    L   M

 Z   Y    X   W   V    U   T    S    R   Q   P    O   N

26  25  24  23  22  21  20  19  18  17  16  15  14

 

The logic here is;

(codes are given as per the total no. of letters in a word)

So,

1) 692425 means ‘School education is free in India’

School = 6

education = 9 

is = 2

free = 4

in = 2

India = 5

And,

2) 7926 means ‘College education is costly’

College = 7 

education = 9

is = 2

costly = 6

Similarly,

Code for ‘I want to become graduate’........?

I = 1

want = 4

to = 2

become = 6

graduate = 8

Thus, 14268 is correct.
