In a certain code, '13' means 'stop smoking' and '59' means 'injurious habit'. What do '9' and '5' mean respectively in that code ?

Statements:

1. '157' means 'stop bad habit'.

2. '839' means 'smoking is injurious'.

  • A.1 alone is sufficient while 2 alone is not sufficient
  • B.2 alone is sufficient while 1 alone is not sufficient
  • C.Either 1 or 2 is sufficient
  • D.Neither 1 nor 2 is sufficient

Answer: C

'59' means 'injurious habit' and '157' means 'stop bad habit' (from 1). Thus, the common code number '5' stands for common word 'habit'. So, '9' represents 'injurious'. Hence, 1 is sufficient.

Also, '59' means 'injurious habit' and '839' means 'smoking is injurious'. Thus, the common code number '9' stands for common word 'injurious'. So, '5' represents 'habit'. Thus, 2 is also sufficient.
