A group of numbers and symbols is coded using letter codes as per the codes given below and the conditions that follow. Study the given codes and conditions and answer the question that follows.
Note: If none of the conditions apply, then codes for the respective number/symbol are
to be followed directly as given in the table.

Code7$@92%6


Conditions:
1. If the 1st letter is a vowel and the last letter is a consonant, their codes are to be interchanged.
2. If the 2nd letter is a vowel and the last letter is a consonant, both are to be coded as 'W'.
3. If the 3rd and 4th letters are consonants, both are to be coded as the code for the 3rd letter.
4. If the 1st and 2nd letters are vowels, then both are to be coded as 'Q'.
What will be the code for the following group?
APUXR 

The correct answer is

4 9 % 6 2

Explanation :- 

1. Letter Codes (Based on Table) :-

Based on the provided table and the logic derived from the answer:

A = 2

P = 9

U = %

X = 6

R = 4 (Note: While 'R' was not in the original table snippet, based on the answer 49%62, the code for R must be 4).

2. Checking the Conditions :-

We need to code the group APUXR:

Condition 1: "If the 1st letter is a vowel and the last letter is a consonant, their codes are to be interchanged."

Analysis: The 1st letter is A (Vowel) and the last letter is R (Consonant).

Conclusion: This condition applies. The codes for A and R will be swapped.

Conditions 2, 3, and 4: These conditions do not apply to this specific letter group.

3. Step-by-Step Calculation :-

Direct Codes (Before applying rules):

A(2), P(9), U(%), X(6), R(4) $\rightarrow$ 29%64

Applying Condition 1 (Interchanging A and R):

The code for R (4) moves to the first position (replacing A).

The code for A (2) moves to the last position (replacing R).

The middle letters (P, U, X) remain unchanged in their original positions.

New Sequence: 4 (Code for R) — 9 (P) — % (U) — 6 (X) — 2 (Code for A)

Final Answer :-

The code for APUXR is 49%62.

Important Questions from Conditional Matrix

  1. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets.

    (30, 14, 8)

    (84, 12, 36)

  2. Select the option in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets.

    (NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits. E.g. 13 – Operations on 13 such as adding /deleting /multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed)
