Mental Ability

EXERCISE
Directions (Q. 1 to Q.4 ): In each of the following questions, a word is represented by only set of numbers
as given in any one of the alternatives. The sets of numbers given in the alternatives are represented by
two classes of alphabets as in the two given matrices. The columns and rows of Matrix I are numbered from
0 to 4 and those of Matrix II from 5 to 9. A letter from these matrices can be represented first by its row
and then the column number e.g., in the matrices for questions 1 to 4, M can be represented by 14, 21
etc: O can be represented by 20, 32, ect. Similarly you have to identify the correct set for the word given
in each question.
