Solution : Given:
1. how are you⇒mp re ge
2. do you follow⇒hk mp bo

By comparing the two coded sentences, we find that –
In sentences 1 and 2, you and mp are common.

Correct Answer: 64

Solution : Given:
BED is coded as 9 and TABLE is coded as 25.

Find the square of the total number of letters in the given word to obtain the required code –
The total number of letters in BED is 3 and the square is 9.
Thus, BED is coded as 9.
And, TABLE is coded as 106 –
The total number of letters in TABLE is 5 and the square is 25.
Thus, TABLE is coded as 25.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for RECLINER –
The total number of letters in RECLINER is 8 and the square is 64.

So, RECLINER is coded as 64. Hence, the fourth option is correct.

Correct Answer: GL

Solution : Given:
KG is written as MJ.

Add 2 and 3 to the positional value of the first and the second letters of KG to obtain the required code –
K + 2 = M; G + 3 = J
Thus, KG is coded as MJ.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for EI –
E + 2 = G; I + 3 = L

So, EI is coded as GL. Hence, the third option is correct.
