Solution:

Here, the alphabets can be re-written to their corresponding numbers:
A = 1, B = 2, C = 3... and so on

SHOP = 19 + 8 + 15 + 16 = 58
FEAR = 6 + 5 + 1 + 18 = 30
BALL = 2 + 1 + 12 + 12 = 27
DEAD = 4 + 5 + 1 + 4 = 14

Now, clearly 58 > 30 > 27 > 14

Thus, the order.

Solution:

Q = 1
U = 9
I = 6
C = 8
K = 3.

Explanation:
Replace values in( Q + U + I + C + K)^3 = QUICK
(1+9+8+6+3)^3 = 19863
27^3 = 19863
19863 = 19863

Solution:

10

Explanation:
Equation 1 + 9 + 11 = 1 can be derived from
One (o) + nine (n) + eleven (e) = one => 1

Similarly for equation,
12 + 11 + 9
Twelve (t) + eleven (e) + nine (n) => ten (10)
