    A 12 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 18 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 8 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 13 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Code = (Sum of place value of all the consonants) - (Number of letters in the word) For JUICE, J and C are the consonants in the word JUICE. Code = (10 + 3) - 5 = 13 - 5 = 8 For POCKET, P, C, K and T are the consonants in the word POCKET. Code = (16 + 3 + 11 + 20) - 6 = 50 - 6 = 44 For DEAR, D and R are the consonants in the word DEAR. Code = (4 + 18) - 4 = 22 - 4 = 18. So, the code for DEAR is 18.
