Question

In certain code '247' means ‘spread red carpet’, '256' means ‘dust one carpet’ and '264' means ‘one red carpet’. Which digit in that code means ‘dust’ ?

• A. 2
• B. 3
• C. 5
• D. 6

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

5

Answer 2

The word "dust" appears only in the second sentence, so the digit that doesn't appear in any of the other codes must represent "dust." The digit that fits this criterion is 5.

So, the correct option is (C): 5.
