Correct Answer: $\frac{113}{8}$


Solution : Given:
VACCINE is written as $\frac{132}{7}$ and MASKS is written as $\frac{72}{5}$.

The sum of the opposite positional values of all the letters of VACCINE is divided by the number of letters of the word, to obtain the code –


5 + 26 + 24 + 24 + 18 + 13 + 22 = 132 ÷ 7 = $\frac{132}{7}$
And, MASKS is written as $\frac{72}{5}$ –

14 + 26 + 8 + 16 + 8 = 72 ÷ 5 = $\frac{72}{5}$
Similarly, follow the same pattern for SANITIZE –

8 + 26 + 13 + 18 + 7 + 18 + 1 + 22 = 113 ÷ 8 = $\frac{113}{8}$

So, SANITIZE is coded as $\frac{113}{8}$. Hence, the first option is correct.
