Coding Pattern Identification
The problem involves a coding pattern where letters are assigned numerical values. We need to find the pattern used to code 'GARLIC' as 112 and apply it to 'CLOCK'.
Analyzing 'GARLIC' = 112
First, consider the standard alphabetical positions:
- G = 7
- A = 1
- R = 18
- L = 12
- I = 9
- C = 3
The sum of these positions is $7 + 1 + 18 + 12 + 9 + 3 = 50$. This does not match 112.
Let's try using the reverse alphabetical positions (A=26, B=25, ..., Z=1):
- G (7th) → $26 - 7 + 1 = 20$
- A (1st) → $26 - 1 + 1 = 26$
- R (18th) → $26 - 18 + 1 = 9$
- L (12th) → $26 - 12 + 1 = 15$
- I (9th) → $26 - 9 + 1 = 18$
- C (3rd) → $26 - 3 + 1 = 24$
Summing the reverse positions: $20 + 26 + 9 + 15 + 18 + 24 = 112$. This matches the given code.
Coding 'CLOCK'
Now, apply the reverse alphabetical position pattern to 'CLOCK':
- C (3rd) → $26 - 3 + 1 = 24$
- L (12th) → $26 - 12 + 1 = 15$
- O (15th) → $26 - 15 + 1 = 12$
- C (3rd) → $26 - 3 + 1 = 24$
- K (11th) → $26 - 11 + 1 = 16$
Summing these values: $24 + 15 + 12 + 24 + 16 = 91$.
Conclusion
The code for 'CLOCK' is 91.

There are two rows, each containing 3 numbers. Below are some rules to be used to get the resultant number for each row separately. Use the rule from left to right for each row and find the answer to the question.
Rule:
1. If an even number is followed by an even number, then the first number will be subtracted from the second.
2. If an odd number is followed by an odd number, then both will be added.
3. If an odd number is followed by an even number, then the even number will be subtracted from the square of the odd number.
4. If an even number is followed by an odd number, then the odd number will be subtracted from the even number.
