Hints & Solutions

1. Solution (2) 4. Solution (2)
As we can see, As we can see that,
The common word in first two statement is ‘gold’ The common word in first two statement is ‘happy’
=5 =5
And the common word in first and last statement is And the common word in first and last statement is
‘old’ = 3 ‘wedding’ = 2
So, Now,
there is only one word left in first statement = is there is only one word left in first statement =
And only one number is left in first statement =2 anniversary
Hence, And only one number is left in first statement = 3
the code for word 'is' will be = 2 Hence,
the code for word ' anniversary’ will be = 3
2. Solution (2)
As we can see that, 5. Solution (4)
The common word in first two statement is ‘sun’ = As we can see that,
5 The common word in first two statement is ‘later’
And the common word in second and last statement =5
is ‘is’ = 8 And the common word in first and last statement is
So, ‘call’ = 3
there is only one word left in second statement = Now,
hot there is only one word left in first statement = me
And , only one number is left in second statement = And only one number is left in first statement = 2
4 Hence,
Hence, the code for word ' me’ = 2
the code for word 'hot' = 4
6. Solution (2)
3. Solution (3) As we can see that,
As we can see that, In the given word ‘HATE’ , all the letters are
The common word in first two statement is ‘you’ = written in the
5 reverse order.
And the common word in second and last statement Similarly,
is ‘nothing’ = 6 In the given word ‘GIVE’ , all the letters are written
So, in the reverse order.
there is only one word left in second statement = Now, ‘ELIMS’ will also follow the same pattern.
know So,
Now, by writing ‘ELIMS’ in reverse, we get : ‘SMILE’.
only one number is left in second statement = 4 ‘ELIMS’ can be written as ‘SMILE’ in that code
Hence, language.
the code for word 'know’ will be = 4
 4

7. Solution (3) 9. Solution (4)

As we can see that, As we can see that,
In the given word ‘THIS’ , all the letters are written The Given word, ‘HELLO’ follows the following
in the reverse order : ‘SIHT’ pattern :
Similarly,
In the given word ‘LIVE’ , all the letters are written
in the
reverse order : ‘EVIL’
So, ‘MISS’ will also follow the same pattern.
by writing ‘MISS’ in reverse, we get : ‘SSIM’ Each alphabet is increasing its place value by 1.
Similarly,
8. Solution (3) ‘BYE’ follows the same pattern and can be written
As we can see that, as : ‘CZF’.
Given word ‘PLANT’ follows the following pattern Now,
: The word ‘NFFUJOH’ will also follow the same
pattern:

Each word is increasing with 1 place value of

alphabets. So, ‘NFFUJOH’ can be written as : ‘OGGVKPI’
Similarly,
Word ‘TREE’ follows the same pattern, so : USFF. 10. Solution (2)
As we can see that,
In ‘YOU’ :: ‘UOY’
Each word is written in the reverse order.
Similarly,
‘SEE’ :: ‘EES’ ;
Now,
The word ‘HERE’ will also follow the same pattern
:
Now, So,
The word ‘WIND’ will follow the same pattern : ‘HERE’ can be written as : EREH.

So, WIND can be written as : XJOE.
