In a certain code, 'parents teach good values' is coded as 'sc fs ye un', 'strong values shape character' is coded as 'lx zv fs lb' and 'good habits discipline strong' is coded as 'ye hk gb zv'. (All the codes are two-letter codes only.) What is the possible code for тАШcharacterтАЩ?
Either 'ye' or 'lb'
Either 'fs' or 'zv'
Either 'lb' or 'fs'
Either 'lb' or 'lx'
Either 'lb' or 'lx'
Identify common words between sentences and their corresponding codes to isolate unique words; process of elimination is key for words occurring only once.
Identify common words between sentences and their corresponding codes to isolate unique words; process of elimination is key for words occurring only once.
Analyze Code Sentences
1. parents teach good values = sc fs ye un. 2. strong values shape character = lx zv fs lb. 3. good habits discipline strong = ye hk gb zv. Comparing 1 and 2: 'values' is common to both, code 'fs' is common. Thus, values = fs.
Isolate remaining words
Comparing 2 and 3: 'strong' is common to both, code 'zv' is common. Thus, strong = zv. Now, in sentence 2 ('strong values shape character'), we have 'lx zv fs lb'. Since 'strong' = zv and 'values' = fs, the remaining words 'shape' and 'character' must be 'lx' and 'lb' in some order.
A: 'ye' refers to 'good' which is present in sentence 1 and 3, so it is incorrect. B: 'fs' refers to 'values' and 'zv' refers to 'strong', both are already identified. C: 'fs' is already identified as 'values', making this incorrect.
D is correct because 'shape' and 'character' must be coded as 'lx' and 'lb' based on the process of elimination in the second sentence.
Always map the most common words first to reduce the set of possible codes for the remaining rare words.
