Question : Directions: A word is represented by only one set of numbers as given in any one of the alternatives. The sets of numbers given in the alternatives are represented by two classes of alphabets as in the two matrices, given below. The columns and rows of Matrix (I) are numbered from 0 to 4 and that of Matrix (II) are numbered from 5 to 9. A letter from these matrices can be represented first by its row and next by its column, e.g. X can be represented by 21, 87, etc, and H can be represented by 03, 65, etc. Similarly, you have to identify the set for the word QUIET.
Option 1: 99, 20, 30, 42, 14
Option 2: 40, 79, 67, 57, 13
Option 3: 40, 79, 31, 57, 96
Option 4: 99, 20, 69, 42, 13

Correct Answer: 40, 79, 31, 57, 96
Solution :
Given:
QUIET
Number representations of each letter –
Q→40, 99
U→20, 79
I→31, 68
E→42, 57
T→14, 96
Let's check the options –
First option:
99, 20, 30, 42, 14 – I cannot be represented by 30.
Second option:
40, 79, 67, 57, 13 – I and T cannot be represented by 67 and 13.
Third option:
40, 79, 31, 57, 96 – All letters of QUIET can be represented through this option.
Fourth option:
99, 20, 69, 42, 13 – I and T cannot be represented by 69 and 13.
So, only the third option consists of the numbers through which QUIET can be represented. Hence, the third option is correct.
