    A 325 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 304 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 314 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 308 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The coded number is the product of the place value of the first and the last letter as in the English alphabetical series. For GEMINI, Code = Multiplying place value of first and last letter = 7 X 9 = 63 For TAURUS, Code = Multiplying place value of first and last letter = 20 X 19 = 380. Similarly, for PISCES, Code = Multiplying place value of first and last letter = 16 X 19 = 304
