We have to find 'translate' code. As we can see that this word is not given in any steps but as we know the idea of that so we can solve it.

Step I: first we will count the letters of that word that is 9, then we put digit 9 at the right end.

Step II: we will put the last letter of that word then it will like- E9

Step III: at the last step ‘t’ is coded for ‘@’(first letter of each word is coded by a specific symbol like here ‘t’ is coded for ‘@’. We can find the first coded symbol by looking at the other given words.

Answer will be - @E9

Q:

Two pipes A and B can fill a tank in 15 minutes and 20 minutes respectively. Both the pipes are opened together but after 4 minutes, pipe A is turned off. What is the total time required to fill the tank?

A) 10 min. 20 sec. B) 11 min. 45 sec.
C) 12 min. 30 sec. D) 14 min. 40 sec.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 14 min. 40 sec.

Explanation:

Part filled in 4 minutes =4(1/15+1/20) = 7/15

 

Remaining part =(1-7/15) = 8/15

 

Part filled by B in 1 minute =1/20 : 8/15 :: 1:x 

x = (8/15*1*20) = 1023min = 10min 40sec

The tank will be full in (4 min. + 10 min. + 40 sec.) = 14 min. 40 sec
