    Solution

    The given code language comprises of two numbers and a symbol.First part coding: Take numeric value of last letter and add 5 to it. For example: FRUIT = T = 20 + 5 = 25. Second part coding: The symbol corresponds to the total number of letters in the word. The symbols for the different number of letters are: 3 - $ 4 - @ 5 - % 6 - # 7 - © 8 - ¥ 9 - & Third part coding: Add numeric values of all the vowels in a word and bring it to a single digit. For example IRON = IO = 9 + 15 = 24 = 6. According for each word we will do and have the coded part of particular word. In Blank A for the code 25#1 we will have six lettered word and according by putting the conditions we will check from the options. In Blank B for MARKET symbol will be # for six letters. For first part add all the numeric values of vowels = AE = 1 + 5 = 6.For third part take numeric value of T which is 20 and add 5 to it which becomes 25.

    Hence the code for Amount is 25#1.
