In a certain code language (the coded words are not in the same order as the English words): "ka bo te" means "mango is sweet" "zo bo lo" means "sweet and sour" "ka lo ban" means "sour green mango" What is the code for "sour"?
- ban
- lo
- ka
- zo
Answer
B. lo
Solution
"sour" appears only in the sentence(s) coded as "zo bo lo" and "ka lo ban". The only code word that appears in exactly those coded sentences and in no others is "lo", so "sour" is coded as "lo".
