Question:

In a certain code language, 'WAVE' is coded as ‘426522’ and ‘SOUND’ is coded as ’81261323’. How will 'LIGHT' be coded in that language?

Explanation:

Each letter is coded as its numerical position from the end of alphabetical series.

W = 4^th from the end
A = 26^th from the end
V = 5^th from the end
E = 22^nd from the end

∴ L = 15^th from the end
I = 18^th from the end
G = 20^th from the end
H = 19^th from the end
T = 7^th from the end

Hence, option (b).
