Question

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 shown in the given two matrices. 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, for example ‘C’ can be represented by 43, 14 ect and ‘Q’ can be represented by 89, 65 etc. Similarly, you have to identify the set for the word ‘YANK’.

Identify Code for Word 'YANK' Using Matrices

The question requires finding the numerical code for the word 'YANK' based on two matrices where letters are represented by their row and column numbers.

Matrix Representation

Matrix-I contains letters for rows 0-4 and columns 0-4. Matrix-II contains letters for rows 5-9 and columns 5-9.

Decoding 'YANK'

We need to find the row-column pairs for each letter in 'YANK'.

  • Y: Found in Matrix-II at Row 6, Column 8. Representation: 68.
  • A: Found in Matrix-I at Row 1, Column 1. Representation: 11. (Other possibilities like 41, 43 exist but 11 is needed for the correct option).
  • N: Found in Matrix-II at Row 7, Column 6. Representation: 76. (Other possibilities like 67, 99 exist).
  • K: Found in Matrix-I at Row 4, Column 2. Representation: 42. (Other possibility is 24).

Final Code Calculation

Combining the representations for each letter gives the code for 'YANK':

  • Y = 68
  • A = 11
  • N = 76
  • K = 42

The sequence is 68, 11, 76, 42.

This corresponds to Option 4.

Important Questions from Matrix

  1. Find the missing number from the below options.

    \(\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 6&{24}&{96}\\ 7&{28}&{112}\\ {13}&{52}&? \end{array}\)

  2. A word is represented by only 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 shown in the given two matrices. The columns and rows of Matrix-I are 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, for example ‘F’ can be represented by 12, 43 etc and ‘Z’ can be represented by 87, 98 etc. Similarly, you have to identify the set for the word ‘SOCK’.

  3. 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 shown in the given two matrices. The columns and rows of Matri×-I are numbered from 0 to 4 and that of Matri×-II are numbered from 5 to 9. A letter from these matrices can be represented first by its row and ne×t by its column, for e×ample ‘C’ can be represented by 21, 34 etc and ‘T’ can be represented by 97, 89 etc. Similarly, you have to identify the set for the word ‘MAZE’.
