    Solution

    Logic- Step 1 - First caluclate the sum of place value of the alphabets according to alphabetical series. (for ex. if we take the word CHAIR the sum of place value of alphabets is 39) Step 2 - Subtract the total number of consonants from the total. (there are 3 consonants in the word CHAIR, So 39 - 3 = 36 ) for  UNIVERSE -  (Sum of place values of all alphabets is 113 and number of consonants is 4 ). So, the correct answer is 109.
