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. H can be represented by 02, 20, 43, etc. and V can be represented by 58, 79, 95, etc. Similarly, you have to identify the set for the word given below.
SOFT

| 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | |
| 0 | F | G | H | O | M |
| 1 | O | M | F | G | H |
| 2 | H | O | M | F | G |
| 3 | G | H | O | M | F |
| 4 | M | F | G | H | O |

| 5 | S | T | U | V | W |
| 6 | U | V | W | S | T |
| 7 | W | S | T | U | V |
| 8 | T | U | V | W | S |
| 9 | V | W | S | T | U |
Option 1: 55, 03, 22, 77
Option 2: 89, 32, 12, 97
Option 3: 68, 11, 12, 97

Correct Answer: 89, 03, 12, 98
Solution :
Given:
SOFT
Number representations of each letter of the word SOFT –
S – 55, 68, 76, 89, 97
O – 03, 10, 21, 32, 44
F – 00, 12, 23, 34, 12
T – 56, 69, 77, 85, 98
Let's check the options –
First option:
55, 03, 22, 77→F can not be represented by 22. Therefore, all the letters of SOFT can not be represented through this option.
Second option:
89, 32, 12, 97→T can not be represented by 97. Therefore, all the letters of SOFT can not be represented through this option.
Third option:
68, 11, 12, 97→O can not be represented by 11; T can not be represented by 97. Therefore, all the letters of SOFT can not be represented through this option.
Fourth option:
89, 03, 12, 98→All the letters of SOFT can be represented through this option.
So, only the fourth option shows the correct number representations of the word SOFT. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
