If in a certain language ENTRY is coded as 12345 and STEADY is coded as 931785, then state which is the correct code for the word NEATNESS.
Answer: B. 21732199 — Explanation: Use the given codes to find each letter's digit. From ENTRY = 12345 we get: E = 1, N = 2, T = 3, R = 4, Y = 5. From STEADY = 931785 we get: S =…

Correct answer: B
Explanation: Use the given codes to find each letter's digit.
From ENTRY = 12345 we get: E = 1, N = 2, T = 3, R = 4, Y = 5.
From STEADY = 931785 we get: S = 9, T = 3, E = 1, A = 7, D = 8, Y = 5.
Combine these to form the full mapping: E=1, N=2, T=3, R=4, Y=5, S=9, A=7, D=8.
Now encode NEATNESS (letters: N E A T N E S S):
N → 2
E → 1
A → 7
T → 3
N → 2
E → 1
S → 9
S → 9
Putting the digits together gives: 21732199
Therefore the correct code for NEATNESS is 21732199.
