Q1. How is 'Name' coded in the code language?
Statements:

II. 'Name Youth Sometime' means '* % !' and 'Just Norway Sometime' means '$ @ !'.

If the data in statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II alone are not sufficient to answer the question.

If the data in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question.

If the data either in statement I alone or in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question

If the data given in both statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question.

If the data in both statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question.

Solution:

To get the code of Name we have to use both the given statements together.
From Statement I we can find that Name either coded as $ or * but from Statement I and II we can clearly find the code of Name i.e. *.

Q2. Who among R, S, K, A, and M is exactly in the middle when they are arranged in ascending order of their heights?
Statements:

Combining the above two, we have:
S>M >A > R/K> R/K.
Clearly, A is in the middle.
