The common word present in both Statement 1 (“bright avenue fresh zone”) and Statement 4 (“global fresh ribbon secret”) is “fresh”.
The common code between Statement 1 (“km ql rt vx”) and Statement 4 (“hn ef km ub”) is “km”.
Hence, “km” = “fresh”.
Step 2: Find the code for “hn”
Comparing Statement 3 and Statement 4:
The common word present in both Statement 3 (“open zone ribbon joyful”) and Statement 4 (“global fresh ribbon secret”) is “ribbon”.
The common code between Statement 3 (“rt hn yg wz”) and Statement 4 (“hn ef km ub”) is “hn”.
