In a certain code language, 'FLOWER' is coded as '166', and 'SHIFT' is coded as '73'. How will 'VOLUME' be coded in that language?

Let's find the positional values of the letters in SHIFT:
S = 19, H = 8, I = 9, F = 6, T = 20
Sum of forward positional values =19+8+9+6+20=62.
To get 73: 62+11=73. (11 could be a constant or a specific added value).

Let's look at FLOWER:
F = 6, L = 12, O = 15, W = 23, E = 5, R = 18
Sum of forward values =6+12+15+23+5+18=79.
But the code is 166. Notice that 79×2=158, and 158+8=166. This pattern isn't matching perfectly.

Let's try opposite (backward) positional values:
For SHIFT:
S = 8, H = 19, I = 18, F = 21, T = 7
Sum of opposite positions =8+19+18+21+7=73.
This matches perfectly!

Let's verify with FLOWER using opposite positions:
F = 21, L = 15, O = 12, W = 4, E = 22, R = 9
Sum of opposite positions =21+15+12+4+22+9=83.
If we double it: 83×2=166.
So the logic is: Sum of opposite letter values × (number of vowels? No, FLOWER has 2 vowels, SHIFT has 1 vowel).
Let's see: For SHIFT, multiplied by 1. For FLOWER, multiplied by 2.
This matches the number of vowels in the words!

SHIFT has 1 vowel ('I') →73×1=73.

FLOWER has 2 vowels ('O', 'E') →83×2=166.

Now apply this logic to VOLUME:
Opposite letters positional values:
V → 5
O → 12
L → 15
U → 6
M → 14
E → 22

Sum =5+12+15+6+14+22=74.
Number of vowels in VOLUME =3 ('O', 'U', 'E').
Total value =74×3=222.
