In the alphabet, suppose we assign a value to all the alphabets such that A+B=C
B+C=D
C+D=E
and so on
And let A=D=333
find the value of M
The answer is 29637.

In the alphabet, suppose we assign a value to all the alphabets such that A+B=C B+C=D
C+D=E
and so on
now let A=D=1
1+B=C
B+C=1
so B=1-C
putting this in 1st eq., we get
1+1-C=C
2=2C
C=1
now A+B=C
1+B=1
B=0
so the series will become a fibonacci series from C to Z
Now to convert this into the desired series, we multiply each term by 333 hence when earlier M's value would be 89, now it would be 89 X 333 = 29637
