Identify common letters between given words and their codes to find the value associated with the target letter by simple observation.
Identify common letters between given words and their codes to find the value associated with the target letter by simple observation.
Analyze the given words and codes
Word FISH is coded as 7913 (F=7, I=9, S=1, H=3). Word SALE is coded as 8641 (S=8, A=6, L=4, E=1).
Identify the contradiction
In FISH, S is coded as 1. In SALE, S is coded as 8. Because S appears in both words with different codes (1 and 8), the question relies on unique mapping within individual words or a typo in the question source.
Evaluate the Official Answer Key
The official answer key specifies Option C (1). Given S=1 in FISH, we accept this mapping based on the provided key.
A: 3 is the code for H in FISH, not S. B: 8 is the code for S in the word SALE, but the official key identifies 1. D: 4 is the code for L in SALE, not S.
C is correct because in the provided code for FISH (7913), the letter S corresponds to the digit 1, which matches the official answer key.
If a letter appears in two words with different codes, check if the question implies positional coding or if there is a printing error in the source material.
