    A 80 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 88 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 84 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 82 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Sum of positional value of letters + Number of letters in the word. MELT = 13 + 5 + 12 + 20 = 50; 50 + 4 = 54. TAILS = 20 + 1 + 9 + 12 + 19 = 61; 61 + 5 = 66. SWORD = 19 + 23 + 15 + 18 + 4 = 79; 79 + 5 = 84.
