- To decode the given words, let's analyze the pattern.

- Consider the word ‘MINT’ which is coded as ‘224’.

- M=13, I=9, N=14, T=20.

- Sum = 13 + 9 + 14 + 20 = 56.

- 224/4 = 56, which matches the alphabet sum.

- Similarly, ‘FANCY’ coded as ‘245’.

- F=6, A=1, N=14, C=3, Y=25.

- Sum = 6 + 1 + 14 + 3 + 25 = 49.

- 245/5 = 49, which matches the alphabet sum.

- Following the same method for ‘CONTOUR’:

- C=3, O=15, N=14, T=20, O=15, U=21, R=18.

- Sum = 3 + 15 + 14 + 20 + 15 + 21 + 18 = 106.

- Each sum is multiplied by number of letters.

- 106 * 7 = 742

- Option 4 is correct: 742
