Total Number of Alphabets are 26, so as per the question above mentioned:

M is the 13th letter and O is the 15th letter as in below detail:

26-13=13 That is, 26 are the total number of alphabets and 13 is the position of M.

Similarly, 26-15=11 That is 26 are the total number of alphabets and 15 is the position of O.

Similarly 26-8=18 that is 26 are the total number of alphabets and 8 is the position of H.

And 26-10=16 that is 26 are the total number of alphabets and 10 is the position of J.

When we will count the rest of the digits from O (excluding O) than last alphabet (Z) will be the 11th term. Similarly When we will count the rest of the digits from M (excluding M) the last alphabet (Z) will be 13. On the similar note the same logic applies for H, when we will count rest of the digits from H then Z will be 18th term & for J, Z will be 16th term.

Therefore, 18 16 is the correct answer.

Consider

z y x w v u t s r q  p  o  n  m  l  k  j  i  h  g  f  e  d  c  b  a
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26

From above logic we have,For first pair
M=14 14-1=13
O=12 12-1=11

For second pair
H=19 19-1=18
J=17 17-1=16

Therefore the final answer is 18, 16.

z y x w v u t s r q p o n m l k j i h g f e d c b a

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26

From above logic we have,

For first pair;
M=14 14-1=13.
O=12 12-1=11.

For second pair;
H=19 19-1=18.
J=17 17-1=16.

Therefore the final answer is 18, 16.

From A to Z, M=13th alphabet and O is 15th alphabet, if both are subtracted from 26 (total no. Of alphabets), M will be 13 and O will be 11 i.e. MO: 1311.

Similarly, H is 8th and J is 10th alphabet, going by the above logic after subtracting from 26, H will 18 and J will be 16 i.e. HO: 1816.

Given-M O:13 11.
According to Alphabets.
M O:13 15.
Now,
Compare first-13+13=26.
Compare second-11+15=26.
Now according to alphabets-H J:8 10.
Now add 18 into 8 to get 26.
Add 16 into 10 to get 26.

Means addition should be 26 only.

I think the right answer could be 816. Because if we see the logic of MO ; 1311. We can get it by counting first alphabet i.e. M from A which comes in 13th alphabet. And then count from second alphabet i.e O which is 11th from Z.

Read the alphabets in reverse order. When we read M in reverse order it comes after 13 letters n similarly O comes after 11 letters. Now when we read H n J in reverse order they will come after 18 n 16 letters respectively.

Actually, we have 26 alphabets if we give numbering for each alphabet in a sequence. That is;

A B C D ....
1 2 3 4 .....

Then M is 13th letter 26-13=13.
And for O is 26-15=11.

Similarly,
For H 26-8=18.
For J 26-10=16.

Here, 'M' is the 13th letter according to alphabetical order: so 13 is given and we got 11 by subtracting 13 by 2 like that, 'H' is 8th letter according to alphabetical order and so 10+8=18; 18-2=16: so, 18:16.
