Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option D

Either jk or vb

Solution :

The correct option is Either jk or vb.

To find the code for the word “gone”, we can analyze and compare the given statements and their corresponding codes step-by-step:

1. Find the code for “season”:
Comparing Statement 1: “Summer season is boring” (coded as “mn hn rd hi”)
and Statement 2: “Winter season are gone” (coded as “jk hn tr vb”)
The only common word is “season”, and the only common code is “hn”.
Therefore, “season” = “hn”.

2. Find the codes for “are” and “gone”:
Now let's compare Statement 2 and Statement 4:
Statement 2: “Winter season are gone” (coded as “jk hn tr vb”)
Statement 4: “boring feel are gone” (coded as “rd jk vb az”)
Since “season” is coded as “hn”, the words “Winter”, “are”, and “gone” correspond to the codes “jk”, “tr”, and “vb” in Statement 2.
Comparing Statement 2 and Statement 4, the common words are “are” and “gone”, and their common codes are “jk” and “vb”.

3. Conclusion:
Since we cannot further distinguish between the two words “are” and “gone” using the remaining statements, the code for “gone” must be either “jk” or “vb”.
