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., A can be represented by 00, 12, 23, etc., and P can be represented by 58, 69, 75, etc. Similarly, you have to identify the set for the word given in the question.

Answer 1

Correct Answer: 86, 12, 31, 76

Solution : Given:
PAST

Number representations of each letter –
P→58, 69, 75, 86, 97
A→00, 12, 23, 34, 41
S→02, 14, 20, 31, 43
T→59, 65, 76, 87, 98

First option: 75, 21, 14, 65; A cannot be represented by 21.
Second option: 86, 12, 31, 76; All the letters of the word PAST can be represented through this option.
Third option: 58, 41,12, 67; S and T cannot be represented by 12 and 67 respectively.
Fourth option: 88, 77, 41, 67; P, A, S, and T cannot be represented by 88, 77, 41, and 67 respectively.

So, PAST can be represented by using the codes 86, 12, 31, and 76. Hence, the second option is correct.
