Directions (11-15): In each of the questions given below, a group of digits is given followed by four combinations of letters/ symbols numbered. You have to find out which of the four combinations correctly represents the group of digits based on the letter/ symbol codes and the conditions given below. If none of the four combinations represents the group of digits correctly, give (e) i.e. ‘None of these’ as the answer.

Condition for coding the group digits:

(i). If the first number is even and last letter is vowel, then the codes for the first and the last digits are to be interchanged.

 (ii). If the first, as well as the last letter, is consonant, then both are to be coded by the code for the fourth letter.

 (iii). If the first as well as the last number is odd, then both are to be coded by the code for the last number.

(iv). If the first number is odd and last letter is consonant, then both are to be coded by the code for the first number.

(a)  >&≥≤*%>

(b)  N&≥≤%*>

(c) >&≥≤%*N

(d) >&≥≤%*>

(e) None of these

Sol. None of the conditions are applied.

(a) %>&<!+<

(b) <>&<!+<

(c) <<&<!+<

(d) %>&<!+*

(e) None of these

Sol. Condition (ii) applies

Sol. Condition (i) Applies.
