  1. A word is represented by only set of numbers as given in any one of the altenatives. The sets of numbers given in the alternatives are represented by two classes of alphabets as in two matrices given below. The columns and rows of Matrix I are numbered from 0 to 4 and that of Matrix II are numbered from 5 to 9. A letter from these matrices can be represented first by its row and next by its column, e.g., ‘A’ can be represented by 02, 11 etc., and ‘L’ can be represented by 56, 67 etc. Similarly, you have to identify the set for the word ‘BEARD’.


    1. 88, 13, 43, 44, 21
    2. 88, 87, 43, 21, 13
    3. 87, 13, 43, 21, 88
    4. 87, 13, 43, 88, 21
Correct Option: C

From above given matrices I and II , we can see that
B ⇒ 59, 65, 76, 87, 98
E ⇒ 04, 13, 22, 31, 40
A ⇒ 02, 11, 20, 34, 43
R ⇒ 03, 12, 21, 30, 44
D ⇒ 55, 66, 77, 88, 99
From given matrix it is clear that all the values for word BEARD are matched in only option ( 3 ) for every letter . So , the set for the word BEARD will be 87, 13, 43, 21, 88 .From matrix , option ( 3 ) is required answer .
