   Option C
   Explanation:
   Observe the numbers. They all are divisible by 4.
   Number which represents first letter * 4.
   Symbol is according to last letter of word:
   D to %, N – ©, R – @, E – #, M – $
   letters are only A, B, C, D, and E. They are according to number of letters in each word:
   5 – A, 6 – B, 7 – C, 8 – D, 9 – E
   Example: INCIDENCE
   I = 9, so 9*4 = 36
   last letter E so #
   Number of letters in incidence = 9, so E
   So incidence is coded as – 36#E
