Solution 1

To determine the code for ‘and’ in the given language, follow these steps:

  1. Identify the given codes and their meanings:

    • $#* means ‘Shirt is clean’
    • @ D# means ‘Clean and neat’
    • @ ? means ‘neat boy’
  2. Find common words and their corresponding codes:

    • The word ‘clean’ appears in both ‘Shirt is clean’ and ‘Clean and neat’. The common code between $#* and @ D# is #.
    • The word ‘neat’ appears in both ‘Clean and neat’ and ‘neat boy’. The common code between @ D# and @ ? is @.
  3. Determine the code for ‘and’:

    • In the code @ D#, which means ‘Clean and neat’, we already know that @ corresponds to ‘neat’ and # corresponds to ‘clean’.
    • Therefore, the remaining code D# must correspond to ‘and’.

Thus, the code for ‘and’ in that language is D#.

Solution 2

To determine the code for ‘and’ in the given language, follow these steps:

  1. Identify the common word in the phrases and their corresponding codes:

    • $#* means ‘Shirt is clean’
    • @ D# means ‘Clean and neat’
    • @ ? means ‘neat boy’
  2. Notice that the word ‘clean’ appears in both the first and second phrases:

    • $#* means ‘Shirt is clean’
    • @ D# means ‘Clean and neat’
  3. The common code between these two phrases is ‘#’. Therefore, ‘#’ corresponds to ‘clean’.

  4. Now, look at the second and third phrases:

    • @ D# means ‘Clean and neat’
    • @ ? means ‘neat boy’
  5. The common word here is ‘neat’, and the common code is ‘@’. Therefore, ‘@’ corresponds to ‘neat’.

  6. Now, in the second phrase ‘@ D# means ‘Clean and neat’:

    • We already know that ‘@’ means ‘neat’ and ‘#’ means ‘clean’.
    • The remaining code ‘D#’ must correspond to the remaining word ‘and’.

Therefore, the code for ‘and’ in that language is ‘D#’.
