in all option there is L89 or U37... why cant all three

Question:

DIRECTIONS: Study the following information carefully and answer the questions which follow.

In a certain code language, some statements are coded as follows:


(i) ‘Major threat to stability’ is coded as ‘H74 D58 Y43 M16’.

(ii) ‘Develop global safety measures’ is coded as ‘L89 W21 P62 U37’.

(iii) ‘Global economic scenario’ is coded as ‘P62 J95 S12’.

(iv) ‘Major markets overseas’ is coded as ‘Z67 Y43 N34’.

If ‘safety’ is coded as ‘W21’, then which of the following cannot be used for getting the code of ‘develop’?

Options:
A)

S12 U37 P62 W21

B)

D58 Y43 U37 J95

C)

H74 L89 N34 M16

D)

Either (b) or (c)

E)

None of these

Solution:

Ans: (e) By comparing (i) and (iv), the code for ‘major’ is ‘Y43’ and similarly by comparing (ii) and (iii), the code for ‘global’ is ‘P62’.

Since we know that the code for ‘global’ is ‘P62’ and the code for ‘safety’ is ‘W21’, then from (ii), the code for ‘develop’ can be either ‘L89’ or ‘U37’. By using all the three options we cannot find the code for ‘develop’.
