Question

In a certain code language, ‘day bush week’ is coded as ' xb yz pp' and ‘angle poem day’ is coded as ‘yz lg el’. How is ‘day’ coded in the given language?

This question was previously asked in
RRB Technician 2026 Grade 3 Question Paper (7-Oct-2026) (Shift 3)
The correct answer is

yz

In such a code language each word has its own code, but the order of the codes need not match the order of the words. A word common to two sentences must therefore be coded by the code common to both coded forms.

The word common to ‘day bush week’ and ‘angle poem day’ is ‘day’. The code common to ‘xb yz pp’ and ‘yz lg el’ is ‘yz’.

Therefore ‘day’ is coded as ‘yz’.

Check: ‘xb’ and ‘pp’ appear only in the first coded sentence and ‘lg’ and ‘el’ only in the second, so none of them can stand for ‘day’, which occurs in both sentences; ‘yz’ is the only shared code.

Hence, yz.
