Answer 1

Answer: (B)

4

In the first, second and third statements, the common code digit is '5' and the common word is 'colour'. So, '5' means 'colour'. In the first and third statements, the common code digit is '2' and the common word is 'chalk'. So, '2' means 'chalk'.
Thus, in the third statement '4' means 'white'.
Hence, option (B) is the correct answer.
