Explanation:

Alright, let’s get straight to it.

- Code for 'TIN' is 27. Let’s look at the letter values: T=20, I=9, N=14. Multiply: 20 × 9 × 14 = 2520. That can’t be it.

- Maybe it’s sum of positions: 20+9+14=43, nope, doesn’t fit either.

- Let’s sum the squares: 20²+9²+14²=400+81+196=677, no luck.

- Time for something simpler: Maybe adding the letters and then splitting, or relating to prime factors?

- But look at 'GO' – G=7, O=15, sum is 22, but code is 8.

- If you take the difference (15-7)=8. That matches.

- Try the same approach for 'TIN': N=14, T=20. 20-14=6. Doesn’t fit.

- Now, what if it’s a pattern like multiplying the first and last letter values—perhaps with the vowel? Or is it letter counts? TIN (3 letters): Is 27 = 3³? Yes!

- GO (2 letters): 2³ = 8. Yes!

So, it’s the number of letters, cubed.

Let’s check 'PALE':

- PALE has 4 letters.

- 4³ = 64.

Now, let’s look at your options:

- Option 1: 48 ? not a cube

- Option 2: 125 ? that’s 5³

- Option 3: 64 ? that’s 4³

- Option 4: 36 ? not a cube

Correct Answer: Option 3 – 64
