Detailed Solution & Explanation

We can determine the code for each letter using direct substitution from the given examples:
1. From the word TOUR→1234\displaystyle TOUR \rightarrow 1234, we have:
T=1\displaystyle T = 1, O=2\displaystyle O = 2, U=3\displaystyle U = 3, R=4\displaystyle R = 4

2. From the word SPACE→90847\displaystyle SPACE \rightarrow 90847, we have:
S=9\displaystyle S = 9, P=0\displaystyle P = 0, A=8\displaystyle A = 8, C=4\displaystyle C = 4, E=7\displaystyle E = 7

3. From the word CLEAR\displaystyle CLEAR, the letters E=7\displaystyle E = 7 and A=8\displaystyle A = 8 are consistent with the codes found in SPACE\displaystyle SPACE.

Now, let's find the code for the word TEARS\displaystyle TEARS by substituting the corresponding digits:
T→1\displaystyle T \rightarrow 1
E→7\displaystyle E \rightarrow 7
A→8\displaystyle A \rightarrow 8
R→4\displaystyle R \rightarrow 4
S→9\displaystyle S \rightarrow 9

Putting it all together, the code for TEARS\displaystyle TEARS is 17849\displaystyle 17849.

Hence, **Option D** is the correct answer.
