Correct Answer :

Option B

ut

Solution :

The correct option is ut.


To find the code for the word ‘same’, let us analyze the given statements and their corresponding codes step-by-step:


1. ‘Play the same game.’ is coded as ‘us ud ut uk’
2. ‘Seen in the play.’ is coded as ‘uk ua ud um’
3. ‘The jar is seen.’ is coded as ‘ud ua uh uw’
4. ‘The same game played’ is coded as ‘ut ud ub us’


Step 1: Identify common words between Statements 1 and 4
Both Statement 1 and Statement 4 contain the words ‘The’, ‘same’, and ‘game’.
Comparing their codes:
Statement 1 codes: {us, ud, ut, uk}
Statement 4 codes: {ut, ud, ub, us}
The common codes in both statements are ud, us, and ut.


Step 2: Find the code for ‘The’
Notice that the word ‘The’ appears in all four statements.
Looking across all four code sets:
1: {us, ud, ut, uk}
2: {uk, ua, ud, um}
3: {ud, ua, uh, uw}
4: {ut, ud, ub, us}
The only code present in all four statements is ud.
Therefore, the code for ‘The’ = ‘ud’.


Step 3: Find the code for ‘play’ / ‘Play’
Comparing Statement 1 and Statement 2:
Common words: ‘Play’ and ‘the’
Common codes: ud and uk
Since ‘the’ = ‘ud’, we get ‘play’ = ‘uk’.


Step 4: Determine the code for ‘same’
Now look at Statement 1 again:
‘Play the same game.’ ➔ ‘us ud ut uk’
We know:
‘the’ = ‘ud’
‘play’ = ‘uk’
So the remaining words ‘same’ and ‘game’ correspond to the remaining codes ‘us’ and ‘ut’.


Looking at Statement 4:
‘The same game played’ ➔ ‘ut ud ub us’
Here, ‘played’ is a new word introducing code ‘ub’.
Between ‘same’ and ‘game’, options give ut as one of the specific answer options. Both ‘ut’ and ‘us’ code for ‘same’ / ‘game’, and based on the provided correct answer option, ut represents ‘same’.


Hence, the code for ‘same’ is ut.
