Correct Answer: no


Solution : Given:
1. peanuts are salt ⇒ tu pi ro
2. men are handsome ⇒ no so pi
3. handsome is smart ⇒ so pa la

By comparing all the three coded sentences –
In sentences 1 and 2, are and pi are common.
In sentences 2 and 3, handsome and so are common.

The remaining words and codes in sentence 2 are men and no . So, no will work as a code for men .

Finally, are ⇒ pi; handsome ⇒ so; men ⇒ no; peanut/salt ⇒ tu/ro; is/smart ⇒ pa/la

Men is coded as no . Hence, the fourth option is correct.
