wa po

Solution :

To find the code for the phrase ‘Event around’, we can analyze and compare the given coded sentences step-by-step:

Step 1: Find the code for ‘around’
Compare the first and third statements:
• ‘Several single port around’ is coded as ‘po xl yu vb’
• ‘Cost around public order’ is coded as ‘km po rf tf’
The common word in both statements is ‘around’ and the common code is ‘po’.
Therefore, ‘around’ = ‘po’.

Step 2: Find the code for ‘Single’
Compare the first and second statements:
• ‘Several single port around’ is coded as ‘po xl yu vb
• ‘Single event cost edition’ is coded as ‘rf zx vb wa’
The common word is ‘single’ and the common code is ‘vb’.
Therefore, ‘single’ = ‘vb’.

Step 3: Find the code for ‘Cost’
Compare the second and third statements:
• ‘Single event cost edition’ is coded as ‘rf zx vb wa’
• ‘Cost around public order’ is coded as ‘km po rf tf’
The common word is ‘cost’ and the common code is ‘rf’.
Therefore, ‘cost’ = ‘rf’.

Step 4: Find the code for ‘edition’
Compare the second and fourth statements:
• ‘Single event cost edition’ is coded as ‘rf zx vb wa’
• ‘Public host winter edition’ is coded as ‘vc ur km zx
The common word is ‘edition’ and the common code is ‘zx’.
Therefore, ‘edition’ = ‘zx’.

Step 5: Find the code for ‘event’
Look at the second statement:
• ‘Single event cost edition’ is coded as ‘rf zx vb wa’
We already know the codes for:
• ‘single’ = ‘vb’
• ‘cost’ = ‘rf’
• ‘edition’ = ‘zx’
The remaining word in this statement is ‘event’, and the remaining code is ‘wa’.
Therefore, ‘event’ = ‘wa’.

Combining the codes, the code for ‘Event around’ is ‘wa po’.
