- A. 54321
- B. 81913
- C. 71913
- D. 71813
Answer: D
Explanation
This is a direct letter-to-digit coding problem. We need to find the code for each letter in YEMEN from the given codes for FRANCE and GERMANY.
From FRANCE = 654321:
F=6, R=5, A=4, N=3, C=2, E=1
From GERMANY = 9158437:
G=9, E=1, R=5, M=8, A=4, N=3, Y=7
Let’s check for consistency across both codes:
* E is 1 in FRANCE and 1 in GERMANY. (Consistent)
* R is 5 in FRANCE and 5 in GERMANY. (Consistent)
* A is 4 in FRANCE and 4 in GERMANY. (Consistent)
* N is 3 in FRANCE and 3 in GERMANY. (Consistent)
Now, we can code YEMEN using these assignments:
* Y = 7 (from GERMANY)
* E = 1 (from FRANCE/GERMANY)
* M = 8 (from GERMANY)
* E = 1 (from FRANCE/GERMANY)
* N = 3 (from FRANCE/GERMANY)
So, YEMEN is coded as 71813. This question tests direct coding-decoding, a common type in reasoning aptitude.
