- Question
- 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 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., 'A' can be represented by 12, 23, etc. and 'K' can be represented by 55, 77, etc. Similarly, identify the set for the word STRONG.
Options- A. 56, 58, 11, 14, 13, 10
- B. 67, 79, 22, 86, 20, 21
- C. 78, 85, 33, 97, 32, 43
- D. 89, 95, 44, 75, 42, 32
- Correct Answer
- 67, 79, 22, 86, 20, 21
ExplanationFrom above given matrices I and II , we get different values for word STRONG -
S ? 56, 67, 78, 89, 95
T ? 57, 68, 79, 85, 96
R ? 00, 11, 22, 33, 44
O ? 58, 69, 75, 86, 97
N ? 03, 14, 20, 31, 42
G ? 04, 10, 21, 32, 43
From given matrix it is clear that all the values for word STRONG are matched in only option ( 2 ) .So , the set for the word STRONG will be 67, 79, 22, 86, 20, 21 .Hence , option ( 2 ) is required answer . - 1. Step third for an input is ? 432, 433, 542, 666, 734, 355, 574
