Solutions:
(1 – 5):
Here code structure of above question have 3 element which are number, letter and symbol.
Logic:
1) 1st element is number which represent position of position of first letter of word in modified English alphabet.
Modified English alphabet order is T – 1; U – 2; V – 3; …………..Q – 24; R – 25; S – 26.
2) 2nd element is letter which represent last letter of word.
3) 3rd element is symbol which represent number of letter in word.
# - 2 letter word; % - 3 letter word; @ - 4 letter word; & - 5 letter word; $ - 6 letter word; ! – 7 letter word; * - 8 letter word
Example: “secret“ will be coded as “26T$”
Here T → Last letter of word.
$ → Symbol that represent 6 letters in word.
26 → it represent position of first letter of word which is S in modified English alphabet.
1. A)   2. A)   3. C)   4. D)   5. A)  
6. C) financial — K35; literacy — M18; and — C39; credit — R42
The code for ‘agency’ can be Y36 or D11. So, option III and IV can be the correct answer.
7. B) The code for ‘foreign’ can be B53 or G81. So, (B) is the correcdt answer as both code are present in all other option.
8. D) The code for ‘committee’ can be N68 or L85 or P77. So, D) can be the correct answer.
9. D)
10. E)
