Q.
What is the code for ‘best’ in the given code language?

Detailed Solution for Test: Coding & Decoding - 3 - Question 1

option ( e) is the correct answer. 

Explanation:-  As we can see, the word

 " Best "  Is present in the sentence :- 

" Work well best results " 

 " ds lu jk ml" 

Now, jk, ml are also used as code in other sentences in which best is absent. So, they cannot be the code for best. Then, the answer can be  from the remaining two:-

  " ds", " lu" .

Q.

Detailed Solution for Test: Coding & Decoding - 3 - Question 2

" Hard work for prepare " code  language is 
" nt ml oz tk"
