In a certain code language:

- “Never talk between others” is coded as “sm nt ro fi”
- “Others should be helpful” is coded as “ro el ac jq”
- “Never be time specific” is coded as “fi dg el pa”
- “Focus between specific hours” is coded as “hy dg nt ks”

What may be the possible code for “focus real” in the given code language?

Question

In a certain code language:

- “Never talk between others” is coded as “sm nt ro fi”
- “Others should be helpful” is coded as “ro el ac jq”
- “Never be time specific” is coded as “fi dg el pa”
- “Focus between specific hours” is coded as “hy dg nt ks”

What may be the possible code for “focus real” in the given code language?

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. First, identify the code for each known word by comparing the given sentences and their codes.

- Sentence 1: “Never talk between others” → “sm nt ro fi”
- Sentence 2: “Others should be helpful” → “ro el ac jq”
- Sentence 3: “Never be time specific” → “fi dg el pa”
- Sentence 4: “Focus between specific hours” → “hy dg nt ks”

2. Find common words and their corresponding codes:

- "Never" appears in sentences 1 and 3.
  - Codes common in sentence 1 and 3: "fi"
  - So, **Never = fi**

- "Others" appears in sentences 1 and 2.
  - Codes common in sentence 1 and 2: "ro"
  - So, **Others = ro**

- "Between" appears in sentences 1 and 4.
  - Codes common in sentence 1 and 4: "nt"
  - So, **Between = nt**

- "Be" appears in sentences 2 and 3.
  - Codes common in sentence 2 and 3: "el"
  - So, **Be = el**

- "Specific" appears in sentences 3 and 4.
  - Codes common in sentence 3 and 4: "dg"
  - So, **Specific = dg**

3. Now, from sentence 4, the codes are "hy dg nt ks" for "Focus between specific hours".
   We already know:
   - Between = nt
   - Specific = dg

Remaining words and codes:
   - Focus = hy
   - Hours = ks

4. The word to be coded is "focus real".
   - We know "focus" = hy
   - "Real" is not present in any sentence, so its code is unknown.

5. Check the options:
   - (a) ks ze
   - (b) ro hy
   - (c) hy tr
   - (d) either (a) or (c)
   - (e) nt me

6. Since "focus" = hy, the code for "focus real" must include "hy" plus some code for "real".
   - Options (a) ks ze → does not contain hy
   - Option (b) ro hy → contains hy but ro = others
   - Option (c) hy tr → contains hy and unknown tr (possible code for real)
   - Option (d) either (a) or (c) → includes (c) which is possible
   - Option (e) nt me → nt = between, no hy

7. Since "real" is unknown, it can be either "ze" or "tr" or any other code not yet assigned.
   Option (a) ks ze has ks which is hours, so unlikely for real.
   Option (c) hy tr is plausible.

8. Therefore, the possible codes for "focus real" are either "ks ze" or "hy tr" as per option (d).

**Answer:** either (a) or (c)
