Question

In a certain code, if ‘sip rip lip’ is coded as bfd, ‘bip sip tip’ is coded as ghb and ‘wip lip mip’ is coded as tfl then how is ‘tip’ coded in that code? [Mu Sigma] A. b B. h C. g D. g or h

Answer 1

Given :

‘sip rip lip’ is coded as b f d  

‘bip sip tip’ is coded as g h b

‘wip lip mip’ is coded as t f l

To Find :

The code for " tip "

Solution :

∵ ‘sip rip lip’ : b f d                .......1

‘bip sip tip’ : g h b                 .......2

‘wip lip mip’ : t f l                  .......3

From 1 and 2

common term is 'b' and 'sip'

So, The code for 'sip' : 'b'

From 1 and 3

common term is 'f' and 'lip'

So, The code for 'lip' : 'f'

so, The code for 'rip' : 'd'

Again

The code for 'bip' and 'tip' : 'g'  or 'h'

Similarly

The code for 'wip' and 'mip' : 't'  or 'l'

So, The code for ' tip ' = either ' g ' or ' h '

Hence, The code for ' tip ' is either ' g ' or ' h '    Answer
