  • B13−7−20−9−11−25\displaystyle 13 - 7 - 20 - 9 - 11 - 25
  • C10−7−20−13−11−24\displaystyle 10 - 7 - 20 - 13 - 11 - 24
  • D13−7−20−10−11−25\displaystyle 13 - 7 - 20 - 10 - 11 - 25

Detailed Solution & Explanation

Let's analyze the coding pattern by comparing alphabetical positions of the letters in MACHINE\displaystyle MACHINE with their given codes:
- M (13)→13+6=19\displaystyle \text{M (13)} \rightarrow 13 + 6 = 19
- A (1)→1+6=7\displaystyle \text{A (1)} \rightarrow 1 + 6 = 7
- C (3)→3+6=9\displaystyle \text{C (3)} \rightarrow 3 + 6 = 9
- H (8)→8+6=14\displaystyle \text{H (8)} \rightarrow 8 + 6 = 14
- I (9)→9+6=15\displaystyle \text{I (9)} \rightarrow 9 + 6 = 15
- N (14)→14+6=20\displaystyle \text{N (14)} \rightarrow 14 + 6 = 20
- E (5)→5+6=11\displaystyle \text{E (5)} \rightarrow 5 + 6 = 11

The coding rule is to add +6\displaystyle +6 to the alphabetical position of each letter.

Now, let's apply this rule to the word DANGER\displaystyle DANGER:
1. D (4)→4+6=10\displaystyle \text{D (4)} \rightarrow 4 + 6 = 10
2. A (1)→1+6=7\displaystyle \text{A (1)} \rightarrow 1 + 6 = 7
3. N (14)→14+6=20\displaystyle \text{N (14)} \rightarrow 14 + 6 = 20
4. G (7)→7+6=13\displaystyle \text{G (7)} \rightarrow 7 + 6 = 13
5. E (5)→5+6=11\displaystyle \text{E (5)} \rightarrow 5 + 6 = 11
6. R (18)→18+6=24\displaystyle \text{R (18)} \rightarrow 18 + 6 = 24

Combining these digits with hyphens, we get: 10−7−20−13−11−24\displaystyle 10 - 7 - 20 - 13 - 11 - 24.

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