The correct option is A 9
From second and third, statement, the common word is 'soup' and the common digit is '8'.
So, '8' means 'soup'.
Similarly, in the first and third, statement, the common word is 'is' and the common digit is '5'.
So, '5' means 'is'.
Clearly, in the third statement, '9' means 'tasty'.
Hence, option (A) is the correct answer.
