Correct option is C

Given:
Original number = 8574162
Rules:
Add 1 to each odd digit
Subtract 2 from each even digit

Original digits (from left):
8 5 7 4 1 6 2
Apply the rules:
8 (even) → 8 – 2 = 6
5 (odd) → 5 + 1 = 6
7 (odd) → 7 + 1 = 8
4 (even) → 4 – 2 = 2
1 (odd) → 1 + 1 = 2
6 (even) → 6 – 2 = 4
2 (even) → 2 – 2 = 0
New number: 6 6 8 2 2 4 0
Now identify:
Second from left = 6
Second from right = 4
Sum = 6 + 4 = 10
Final Answer: 10
Final Correct Option: (C)
