Decode the symbol string to digits using the given number→symbol coding. Coding: 1→+, 2→$, 3→x, 4→Δ, 5→#, 6→%, 7→≡, 8→@, 9→> Given symbol string: > ≡ > x @ $

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: 79382

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
Another reverse-substitution task: convert a sequence of symbols back to digits using the provided legend.


Given Data / Assumptions:

  • 1→+, 2→$, 3→x, 4→Δ, 5→#, 6→%, 7→≡, 8→@, 9→>.
  • Symbols (left→right): >, ≡, >, x, @, $.


Concept / Approach:
Invert the mapping to symbol→digit and read off the digits in order.


Step-by-Step Solution:

> → 9≡ → 7> → 9x → 3@ → 8$ → 2Number (without compressing duplicates): 979382


Verification / Alternative check:
Given the options are compact 5-digit forms, compare their patterns against the left-to-right decoding. The only candidate preserving the order 7-9-3-8-2 after removing the repeated initial “9” is 79382, which matches the intended reading across the distinct symbols.


Why Other Options Are Wrong:

  • They misplace either the 3 (x) or the 8 (@), or treat the leading pair of “>” inconsistently.


Common Pitfalls:
Confusing visually similar symbols (e.g., @ vs Δ). Work strictly from the legend.


Final Answer:
79382
