Grid and Matrices


  1. A word is represented by only one set of numbers as given in any one of the alternatives. 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 ofMatrix 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 03,14 etc., and ‘U’ can be represented by 56,65etc. Similarly, you have to identify the set for the word ‘BRIDE’

Direction: In the following two questions, given below are the two matrices each containing two classes of letters from the alphabets. The columns and rows of Matrix I are prime numbered and that of Matrix II are composite numbered. Letter from these matrices can be represented first by its row number and next by its column number. e.g. P can be written as 48, 66, 84 etc. In the following questions identify one set of number pairs out of (1), (2), (3) and (4) which represent the given word.
