Question 32

In a certain code language, ‘Fakes are not great’ is written as ‘8 6 3 2’ and ‘Tall people are great’ is written as ‘5 3 2 7’. Which one of the following is the possible code for ‘not’ in that code language?

Solution

Fakes are not great ==> 8 6 3 2

Tall people are great ==> 5 3 2 7

In both of the statements, 'are great' is common. So the code for this will be '3 2'.

Now in the first statement, 'Fakes not' is remaining which can be coded as '8 6'.

So the code for 'not' is either '8' or '6'. But in the options '6' is not available. Hence the answer will be '8'.
