    A 78 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 95 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 73 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 89 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The logic followed here is: Take the sum of the place values of the letters in reverse alphabetical order. Code for ‘JUNE’: 17 + 6 + 13 + 21 = 57 Code for ‘JULY’: 17 + 6 + 15 + 2 = 40 Now, for ‘AUGUST’: 26 + 6 + 20 + 6 + 8 + 7= 73
