The pattern followed here is:

Here consonants of the words are coded according to their positional values in English alphabetical series.

  • Consonants → same positional value

The Vowels are coded according to the opposite letter place value × 2.

  • Vowels → Opposite letter positional value × 2.

For AROUND = 52182412144

For FIX = 63624

Similarly,

For PLASTIC = ?

Hence, ‘1612521920363’ is the correct answer.
