- Let's analyze the code for each word:

- CROWN = 68

- C(3) + R(18) + O(15) + W(23) + N(14) = 3 + 18 + 15 + 23 + 14 = 73

- But code is 68, so maybe all letters' positions are added and then number of letters is subtracted?

- 73 (sum) - 5 (letters in 'CROWN') = 68

- DEPEND = 42

- D(4) + E(5) + P(16) + E(5) + N(14) + D(4) = 4 + 5 + 16 + 5 + 14 + 4 = 48

- 48 (sum) - 6 (letters in 'DEPEND') = 42

- Now, for IMAGERY:

- I(9) + M(13) + A(1) + G(7) + E(5) + R(18) + Y(25) = 9 + 13 + 1 + 7 + 5 + 18 + 25 = 78

- Subtract number of letters: 78 - 7 = 71

- Check options:

- Option 1: 68

- Option 2: 67

- Option 3: 71

- Option 4: 73

- So, IMAGERY is coded as 71.
