Question

In a certain code ${}^{\prime }643$' means 'she is beautiful', ${}^{\prime }{593}^{\prime }$ means 'he is handsome', and ${}^{\prime }{567}^{\prime }$ means 'handsome meets beautiful'. What number will indicate the word 'meets'?

• A. $5$
• B. $3$
• C. $7$
• D. $6$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$7$

From second and third statement, the common word is 'handsome' and the common code digit is '5'. So, '5' means 'Handsome'.
From first and third statement, the common word is 'beautiful' and the common code digit is '6'. So, '6' means 'beautiful'.
Clearly, from the third statement, '7' means 'meets'.
Hence, option (C) is the correct answer.
