Let's break it down:

- Let's try coding logic:

- A = 1, N = 14: AN = 1 + 14 = 15, but given as 14. Maybe product: 1 × 14 = 14 ? Matches.

- C = 3, A = 1, T = 20; CAT = 3 × 1 × 20 = 60 ? Matches.

- So, seems the code of a word is product of the alphabet positions of its letters.

Now, BEG:

- B = 2

- E = 5

- G = 7

- BEG = 2 × 5 × 7 = 70

Options:

- 1: 68 ?

- 2: 70

- 3: 74 ?

- 4: 72 ?

So,

- Correct Answer is Option 2: 70

- Logic: Multiply the position of each letter in the word.
