No matter how far I've roamed, I've never found anything quite as perplexing as this puzzle. Perhaps you can help me find the missing numeral in the last line.



EXIT + LAX = 71
BROCCOLI + MASSIVE = 1255
SCANDAL + CLIENT = 601
DELIGHT + EMULSIVE = 1605
ADVISE + NAVY = 511
SIX + CANDLE = 459
DECEIT + DECEIVE = 1205
MEDIA + ALIVE = ?


Suggestions for improvement welcome

    Could the first line be correctly written as "EXIT + LAX = 701"?

The missing step is to




Remove extra letters so that the words can be read as Roman numerals.




The equations are




EXIT + LAX = XI + LX = 11 + 60 = 71

BROCCOLI + MASSIVE = CCLI + MIV = 251 + 1004 = 1255

SCANDAL + CLIENT = CDL + CLI = 450 + 151 = 601

DELIGHT + EMULSIVE = DLI + MLIV = 551 + 1054 = 1605

ADVISE + NAVY = DVI + V = 506 + 5 = 511

SIX + CANDLE = IX + CDL = 9 + 450 = 459

DECEIT + DECEIVE = DCI + DCIV = 601 + 604 = 1205




So the answer is




MEDIA + ALIVE = MDI + LIV = 1501 + 54 = 1555
