***********************************************
THE LOGIC FOLLOWED HERE IS:
SUM OF THE PLACE VALUE OF LETTER × NUMBER OF LETTER IN THE WORD
AS
PATNA :
= 16 +1 +20 + 14 + 1 = 52
AND 52 × 5 =260
GOA :
= 7 + 15 + 1 = 23
= 23 × 3 = 69
SIMILARLY
RANCHI :
= 18 + 1 + 14 + 3 + 8 + 9 = 53
= 53 × 6 = 318
HENCE 318 IS CORRECT ANSWER
