Select an option to attempt

Explanation

Rule: Each letter in the word is replaced by its position in the English alphabet. Then all values are multiplied together.

Positions: N = 14
O = 15
T = 20
E = 5
S = 19

Step-by-step: NO = 14×15=21014 \times 15 = 210
NOT = 14×15×20=420014 \times 15 \times 20 = 4200
NOTE = 14×15×20×5=2100014 \times 15 \times 20 \times 5 = 21000
NOTES = 14×15×20×5×19=39900014 \times 15 \times 20 \times 5 \times 19 = 399000

Hence, the correct answer is 399000 (Option A).
