The given word is coded as "X-Y".
X = Number of letters in a word.
Y = Sum of opposite alphabet positional letters of a word.
'CARPETS' is written as '7-107'.
Number of letters in word 'CARPETS' = 7
Sum of opposite alphabet positional letters = 24 + 26 + 9 + 11 + 22 + 7 + 8
Sum of opposite alphabet positional letters = 107
And
'DRIVE' is written as '5-77'.
Number of letters in word 'DRIVE' = 5
Sum of opposite alphabet positional letters = 23 + 9 + 18 + 5 + 22
Sum of opposite alphabet positional letters = 77
Similarly,
'GOLDEN' will be written as :
Number of letters in word 'GOLDEN' = 6
Sum of opposite alphabet positional letters = 20 + 12 + 15 + 23 + 22 + 13
Sum of opposite alphabet positional letters = 105
∴ Here, 'GOLDEN' is written as '6-105'.
Hence, the correct answer is "6-105".
