Default convert text & multiply

Is it possible to create a function/formula which will count certain text in
a row and then convert them to a value and allow it to be multiplied by a
value?
e.g. E DO L OD E L DO (count the text E, L, OD ignoring DO) the value of these being 7.5 then multiplied by the amount of times they appear e.g. 5x7.5 = 37.5.
