Analyze the sentences and codes
Sentence 1: butter milk ghee = dy la mt. Sentence 2: biscuit ghee salad = bz qp la. Sentence 3: salad butter egg = st bz dy.
Identify common words and codes
1. 'ghee' appears in S1 and S2. Comparing codes (dy la mt) and (bz qp la), the common code is 'la'. Therefore, ghee = la.
Verify with other words
2. 'butter' appears in S1 and S3. Common code in (dy la mt) and (st bz dy) is 'dy'. Thus, butter = dy. 3. 'salad' appears in S2 and S3. Common code in (bz qp la) and (st bz dy) is 'bz'. Thus, salad = bz.
A: 'mt' is the code for 'milk', not 'ghee'. C: 'bz' is the code for 'salad', not 'ghee'. D: 'qp' is the code for 'biscuit', not 'ghee'.
B is correct because the word 'ghee' is common to the first two sentences, and 'la' is the only code shared between them.
In coding-decoding questions, always isolate common items first; solving for the words that appear most frequently across sentences drastically reduces the time required.
