Answer:
Number all the letters from A to Z as 1 to 26 as below;
| A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M | N | O | P | Q | R | S | T | U | V | W | X | Y | Z |
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 | 25 | 26 |
So you will get
B = 2
E = 5
H = 8
C = 3
Now to arrive at the answer there one more step and we use the following formula;
BAT = 60 – (value of B) = 60 – 2 = 58;
Similarly;
EAT = 60 – (value of E) = 60 – 5 = 55;
HAT = 60 – (value of H) = 60 – 8 = 52;
CAT = 60 – (value of C) = 60 – 3 = 57;
So we can solve the values for MAT and RAT as;
M = 13 and
R = 18.
So;
MAT = 60 – (value of M) = 60 – 13 = 47;
RAT = 60 – (value of R) = 60 – 18 = 42;
Hence answer is;
MAT = 47 &
RAT = 42
