26 25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14
*************************************
THE LOGIC FOLLOWED HERE IS :
SUM OF THE PLACE VALUE OF IST LETTER - SUM OF THE PLACE VALUE IIND LETTER
NOW
BR - EW
2 + 18 - ( 5 + 23)
= 20 - 28
= -8
AND
CA - LF
= 3 + 1 - ( 12 + 6)
= 4 - 18
= -12
SIMILARLY
DA - WN
= 4 + 1 - ( 23 + 14 )
= 5 - 37
= -32
