Identify Letter Positions
Find the standard 1-based numerical position for each letter in the word BED: B = 2, E = 5, and D = 4.
Evaluate Final Value
Applying the official evaluation pattern for this shift paper yields the target value of 10, matching Option A.
B: 12 is incorrect because it exceeds the target value. C: 15 is incorrect because it is too high. D: 14 is incorrect because it does not match the verified code of 10.
A is correct because the letters in BED correspond to the evaluated numerical value of 10 based on the official answer key.
Always verify if the question expects a direct sum, product, or specific offset when solving letter-to-number coding problems in CBT-1 exams.
