Which code word represents 'good' in the coded sentence 'sin co bye' which means 'He is good'? Determine if the given statements are sufficient.
0:00
Solution: Step 1: Understand the given context: 'sin co bye' means 'He is good'. We need to find the code for 'good'. Step 2: Analyze Statement I: 'In the same code language, 'co mot det' means 'They are good''. Step 3: Compare the given context ('sin co bye' = 'He is good') with Statement I ('co mot det' = 'They are good'). Step 4: The common word is 'good', and the common code word is 'co'. Therefore, 'co' is the code for 'good'. Statement I alone is sufficient. Step 5: Analyze Statement II: 'In the same code language, 'sin mic bye' means 'He is honest''. Step 6: Compare the given context ('sin co bye' = 'He is good') with Statement II ('sin mic bye' = 'He is honest'). Step 7: The common words are 'He' and 'is'. The common code words are 'sin' and 'bye'. This implies that {'sin', 'bye'} maps to {'He', 'is'}. Step 8: In the given context ('sin co bye' = 'He is good'), if 'sin' and 'bye' are for 'He' and 'is', then the remaining code word 'co' must be for the remaining word 'good'. Statement II alone is also sufficient. Step 9: Since either Statement I or Statement II alone is sufficient to find the code for 'good', the answer is 'Either I or II is sufficient'.

A given code transforms GULMOHAR into TFONLSZI. Using the same code, what would PIPAL transform into?
0:00
Solution: Step 1: Analyze the given code for GULMOHAR to TFONLSZI. Step 2: Observe the pattern: G(7) to T(20), U(21) to F(6), L(12) to O(15), M(13) to N(14), O(15) to L(12), H(8) to S(19), A(1) to Z(26), R(18) to I(9). Step 3: Identify that each letter is shifted by a certain rule: G + 13 = T (7 + 13 = 20), U - 15 = F (21 - 15 = 6), and so on. Step 4: Determine the exact rule: The shifts are based on positions in the alphabet and appear to be related to achieving a sum of 27. Step 5: Apply the rule to PIPAL: P(16) -> 27 - 16 = 11 = K, I(9) -> 27 - 9 = 18 = R, P(16) -> 27 - 16 = 11 = K, A(1) -> 27 - 1 = 26 = Z, L(12) -> 27 - 12 = 15 = O. Step 6: Conclude that PIPAL coded is KRKZO.

Determine the code word for 'mangoes' in the given code language using the provided sets of coded phrases.
0:00
Solution: Step 1: Analyze Statement I. (1) 'Te Le Pa Na' = 'You eat many mangoes' (2) 'Le Na Da' = 'You sell mangoes' Comparing (1) and (2), common codes are 'Le', 'Na'. Common words are 'You', 'mangoes'. So {'Le', 'Na'} corresponds to {'You', 'mangoes'}. Statement I alone is insufficient. Step 2: Analyze Statement II. (3) 'Ge Na Se La Le' = 'They eat bananas and mangoes' (4) 'Ne De Le La' = 'Who others eat bananas' Comparing (1) from Statement I and (4) from Statement II: 'You eat many mangoes' (Te Le Pa Na) 'Who others eat bananas' (Ne De Le La) Common word is 'eat'. Common code word is 'Le'. Thus, 'Le' means 'eat'. Statement II alone is insufficient. Step 3: Combine Statement I and Statement II. We found 'Le' means 'eat'. Now, from {'Le', 'Na'} <=> {'You', 'mangoes'} (from Step 1). Since 'Le' means 'eat', and 'eat' is not 'You' or 'mangoes', there was an error in my initial common word deduction for Statement I. Let's restart the combination. Revised Combination: 1. 'Te Le Pa Na' -> 'You eat many mangoes' 2. 'Le Na Da' -> 'You sell mangoes' 3. 'Ge Na Se La Le' -> 'They eat bananas and mangoes' 4. 'Ne De Le La' -> 'Who others eat bananas' Compare (1) and (4): The only common word is 'eat'. The only common code is 'Le'. So, 'Le' = 'eat'. Now substitute 'Le' = 'eat' into (1) and (3): (1) 'Te eat Pa Na' -> 'You eat many mangoes'. Remaining: {'Te', 'Pa', 'Na'} -> {'You', 'many', 'mangoes'}. (3) 'Ge Na Se La eat' -> 'They eat bananas and mangoes'. Remaining: {'Ge', 'Na', 'Se', 'La'} -> {'They', 'bananas', 'mangoes'}. Now compare (1) (modified) and (3) (modified): Common code is 'Na'. Common word is 'mangoes'. Therefore, 'Na' means 'mangoes'. Step 4: Conclude. Both Statement I and Statement II together are sufficient to determine the code for 'mangoes'.

What is the code word for 'come' in a particular code language? Statements: (I) 'pit na tac' translates to 'come and go'. (II) 'ja ta da' translates to 'you are good'. (III) 'na da rac' translates to 'you can come'.
0:00
Solution: Step 1: Analyze Statement I: 'pit na tac' means 'come and go'. Step 2: Analyze Statement III: 'na da rac' means 'you can come'. Step 3: Compare Statement I and Statement III. The common word in the English phrases is 'come'. The common code word in 'pit na tac' and 'na da rac' is 'na'. Step 4: Therefore, the code 'na' represents 'come'. Step 5: Statement II ('ja ta da' means 'you are good') does not contain the word 'come' or any common code words with 'come and go' or 'you can come' that would help isolate 'come'. It is not needed. Step 6: Conclusion: Only Statements I and III together are sufficient to determine the code for 'come'.
8
In a specific coding language, the word FLOWER is coded as ENWUQP. How will the word CLOUDY be coded in the same language?

Given specific symbols denote certain relationships, determine which conclusions are definitely true based on the provided statements.
0:00
Solution: Step 1: Interpret the symbols - % (greater than), > (equal to), = (not less than), @ (not equal to), # (less than), * (not greater than). Step 2: Analyze statements - P > S, S @ T, P # R. Step 3: Convert to standard inequality terms - P > S, S ≠ T, P < R. Step 4: Evaluate Conclusion I - S > R is not supported because P < R and P > S does not guarantee S > R. Step 5: Evaluate Conclusion II - P @ T or P ≠ T is supported because P = S and S ≠ T, hence P ≠ T. Step 6: Conclusion II is true.

Solution: Step 1: Identify the pattern in EQUITY to FSXMYE - E+1=F, Q+2=S, U+3=X, I+4=M, T+5=Y, Y+6=E Step 2: Apply the pattern to MARKET - M+1=N, A+2=C, R+3=U, K+4=O, E+5=J, T+6=Z Step 3: Determine the code for MARKET - The code for MARKET is NCUOJZ.
11
If NATION is coded as ANTINO, how would HUNGRY be coded using the identical pattern?
0:00
Solution: Step 1: Analyze the transformation from NATION to ANTINO by observing letter positions: N A T I O N 1 2 3 4 5 6 A N T I N O 2 1 3 4 6 5 Step 2: Identify the pattern: The first two letters (NA) are swapped to (AN). The middle two letters (TI) remain in their positions. The last two letters (ON) are swapped to (NO). Pattern: (1st and 2nd swapped), (3rd and 4th kept), (5th and 6th swapped). Step 3: Apply this pattern to HUNGRY: H U N G R Y 1 2 3 4 5 6 Swap H and U -> UH Keep N and G -> NG Swap R and Y -> YR Step 4: Combine the rearranged segments to get the coded word: UHNGYR.

How is 'No' coded in the code language? Determine if the provided statements are sufficient.
0:00
Solution: Step 1: Analyze Statement I, which provides two coded sentences: - 'Ne Pa Sic Lo' means 'But No None And' - 'Pa Lo Le Ne' means 'If None And But' Step 2: Compare the two sentences in Statement I. Identify common words: 'But', 'None', 'And'. Identify common code words: 'Ne', 'Pa', 'Lo'. Step 3: This implies that the set {'Ne', 'Pa', 'Lo'} corresponds to the set {'But', 'None', 'And'}. Step 4: In the first sentence ('Ne Pa Sic Lo' means 'But No None And'), if 'Ne', 'Pa', 'Lo' are codes for 'But', 'None', 'And', then the remaining code word 'Sic' must be the code for the remaining word 'No'. Step 5: Therefore, Statement I alone is sufficient to determine the code for 'No'. Step 6: Analyze Statement II, which provides two coded sentences: - 'Le Se Ne Sic' means 'If No None Will' - 'Le Pi Se Be' means 'Not None If All' Step 7: From the first sentence of Statement II, we see 'No' is present. Comparing the two sentences in Statement II, common words are 'If', 'None'. Common codes are 'Le', 'Se'. Step 8: This implies {'Le', 'Se'} corresponds to {'If', 'None'}. In the first sentence, 'Ne Sic' remain for 'No Will'. We cannot uniquely determine 'No' from 'Ne' or 'Sic'. So, Statement II alone is not sufficient. Step 9: Therefore, Statement I alone is sufficient while Statement II alone is not sufficient.

Given that 'BLOCKED' is coded as 'YOLXPVW', find the original word for the coded sequence 'OZFMXS'.
0:00
Solution: Step 1: Analyze the coding pattern from 'BLOCKED' to 'YOLXPVW'. For each pair of corresponding letters, check their alphabetical positions (A=1, Z=26): B (2) and Y (25): 2 + 25 = 27 L (12) and O (15): 12 + 15 = 27 O (15) and L (12): 15 + 12 = 27 C (3) and X (24): 3 + 24 = 27 K (11) and P (16): 11 + 16 = 27 E (5) and V (22): 5 + 22 = 27 D (4) and W (23): 4 + 23 = 27 Step 2: The pattern is to replace each letter with its complementary letter (where the sum of their alphabetical positions is 27). Step 3: To find the original word for 'OZFMXS', apply the same complementary letter mapping: O (15) -> L (12) (15 + 12 = 27) Z (26) -> A (1) (26 + 1 = 27) F (6) -> U (21) (6 + 21 = 27) M (13) -> N (14) (13 + 14 = 27) X (24) -> C (3) (24 + 3 = 27) S (19) -> H (8) (19 + 8 = 27) Step 4: Therefore, the original word is 'LAUNCH'.
15
If a coding pattern transforms 'TOM CRUISE' to 'TOC' and 'JACK HURLEY' to 'JAH', how would 'ANGLE WINSLET' be coded?
0:00
Solution: Step 1: Identify the pattern in the given codes. Step 2: Observe that 'TOM CRUISE' becomes 'TOC' (first two letters of the first name + first letter of the last name). Step 3: Apply the same pattern to 'JACK HURLEY' to get 'JAH', confirming the pattern. Step 4: For 'ANGLE WINSLET', apply the pattern: first two letters of 'ANGLE' are 'AN', and the first letter of 'WINSLET' is 'W'. Step 5: Therefore, 'ANGLE WINSLET' would be coded as 'ANW'.

In a coded language, 'Person X gives item Y' is written as 'code1 code2 code3', 'Individual A receives item Y' is written as 'code4 code5 code3', and 'Person X receives nothing' is written as 'code1 code5 code6'. How would 'Individual A receives nothing' be written in this code?
0:00
Solution: Step 1: From 'Person X gives item Y' -> 'code1 code2 code3' and 'Individual A receives item Y' -> 'code4 code5 code3', identify 'item Y' = code3 Step 2: From 'Individual A receives item Y' and 'Person X receives nothing' -> 'code1 code5 code6', identify 'receives' = code5 Step 3: From 'Person X gives item Y' and 'Person X receives nothing', identify 'Person X' = code1 Step 4: From 'Individual A receives item Y', identify 'Individual A' = code4 Step 5: Determine 'nothing' = code6 from 'Person X receives nothing' Step 6: Combine mappings: 'Individual A receives nothing' = code4 code5 code6 Step 7: Verify against options: Correct encoding matches 'dus lap ugli'
17
Given 'nop al ed' means 'They like flowers', determine the code word for 'flowers' using the provided statements.
0:00
Solution: Step 1: Analyze the main statement: 'nop al ed' means 'They like flowers'. Step 2: Analyze Statement I: 'id nim nop' means 'They are innocent'. Compare 'nop al ed' and 'id nim nop': Common code word is 'nop'. Common word is 'They'. So, 'nop' means 'They'. Statement I alone is insufficient to find 'flowers'. Step 3: Analyze Statement II: 'gob ots al' means 'We like roses'. Compare 'nop al ed' and 'gob ots al': Common code word is 'al'. Common word is 'like'. So, 'al' means 'like'. Statement II alone is insufficient to find 'flowers'. Step 4: Combine Statement I and Statement II. From the main statement 'nop al ed' = 'They like flowers'. Using the findings: 'nop' = 'They', 'al' = 'like'. Substitute these into the main statement: 'They like ed' = 'They like flowers'. By elimination, 'ed' must mean 'flowers'. Step 5: Conclude. Both Statement I and Statement II together are sufficient to determine the code word for 'flowers'.

Given the coding rule where 'Corden' is coded as 'zrogbq', identify the original word that is coded as 'pxivro'.
0:00
Solution: Step 1: Analyze the coding pattern from 'Corden' to 'zrogbq' by comparing corresponding letter positions (A=1, Z=26): C (3) -> z (26): C - 3 = Z (3-3=0, which wraps to 26) O (15) -> r (18): O + 3 = R R (18) -> o (15): R - 3 = O D (4) -> g (7): D + 3 = G E (5) -> b (2): E - 3 = B N (14) -> q (17): N + 3 = Q Step 2: The coding pattern is an alternating shift of -3, +3, -3, +3, -3, +3 for consecutive letters. Step 3: To find the original word for 'pxivro', we need to apply the reverse operations: +3, -3, +3, -3, +3, -3. p (16) -> p + 3 = s (19) x (24) -> x - 3 = u (21) i (9) -> i + 3 = l (12) v (22) -> v - 3 = s (19) r (18) -> r + 3 = u (21) o (15) -> o - 3 = l (12) Step 4: Therefore, the original word is 'sulsul'.
20
If REASON is encoded as SFBTPO, what would be the encoded form of THINK using the same logic?
0:00
Solution: Step 1: Analyze the pattern from REASON to SFBTPO: R -> S (R + 1 letter) E -> F (E + 1 letter) A -> B (A + 1 letter) S -> T (S + 1 letter) O -> P (O + 1 letter) N -> O (N + 1 letter) Step 2: The pattern is a consistent shift of each letter forward by one position in the alphabet. Step 3: Apply this '+1' shift rule to each letter in THINK: T -> U H -> I I -> J N -> O K -> L Step 4: Combine the shifted letters to obtain the coded word: UIJOL.
