Question : Direction: A word is represented by only one set of numbers as given in any one of the alternatives. The sets of numbers given in the alternatives are represented by two classes of alphabets as in the two matrices, given below. The columns and rows of Matrix (I) are numbered from 0 to 4 and that of Matrix (II) are numbered from 5 to 9. A letter from these matrices can be represented first by its row and next by its column, e.g. 'D' can be represented by 11, 25, etc., and 'J' can be represented by 67, 78, etc. Similarly, you have to identify the set for the given word.
MILK
Matrix I
| 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
| 1 | D | E | F | G | H |
| 2 | H | G | E | F | D |
| 3 | G | F | E | D | H |
| 4 | F | E | D | H | G |
| 5 | E | D | H | F | G |
Matrix II
| 0 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 |
| 6 | I | J | K | L | M |
| 7 | M | L | J | K | I |
| 8 | I | K | L | J | M |
| 9 | J | L | M | K | I |
| 10 | K | M | I | L | J |
Option 1: 98, 66, 79, 77
Option 2: 98, 79, 77, 86
Option 3: 98, 86, 77, 99
Option 4: 86, 77, 99, 98
Correct Answer: 98, 86, 77, 99
Solution :
Given:
MILK
Number representations of each letter:
M → 76, 107, 98, 610, 810
I → 66, 86, 108, 710, 910
L → 77, 97, 88, 69, 109
K → 106, 87, 68, 99, 79
First option:
98, 66, 79, 77
L
cannot be represented as
79; K
cannot be represented as
77
. Hence, it's incorrect.
Second option:
98, 79, 77, 86
I
cannot be represented as
79; K
cannot be represented as
86
. Hence, it's incorrect.
Third option:
98, 86, 77, 99
All the letters of the word MILK can be represented through this option. Hence, it's correct.
Fourth option:
86, 77, 99, 98
M
cannot be represented as
86; I
cannot be represented as
77; L
cannot be represented as
99; K
cannot be represented as
98
. Hence, it's incorrect.
Hence, the third option is correct.
