If ‘MALE’ can be written as 15 + 3 + 14 + 7, then ‘BHEL’ can be written as

The correct answer is (a).

The sum of the ASCII codes of the letters in the word “MALE” is 15 + 3 + 14 + 7 = 40. The sum of the ASCII codes of the letters in the word “BHEL” is 2 + 6 + 14 + 7 = 29. Therefore, the only option that gives a sum of 29 is (a).

Here is a brief explanation of each option:

(a) 2 + 6 + 14 + 7 = 29
(b) 4 + 10 + 7 + 14 = 35
(c) 4 + 12 + 7 + 14 = 37
(d) 2 + 6 + 7 + 14 = 27
