What is the code for costly?​

ANSWER: 3 = costly.

357 means “books are costly” (1)

467 means “read good books” (2)

5678 means “good books are available”. (3)

  • common of (1) and (2) number 7 and “books” so 7 = books.
  • common of (2) and (3) number 67 = “good books”. If 7=books then 6 = good
  • from (2) ==> 6 = good, 7 = books then 4 = read.
  • common of (1) and (3) number 5 and 7 and “books are”==> 5 = are
  • from (1) == > 5 = are, 7 = books then 3 = costly.
