• A. 2
• B. 9
• C. 4
• D. 3

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 2

• BIGS → 4593

• SING → 9432

The words BIGS and SING have three common letters:

Common letters: I, G, S
Different letters:

• BIGS has B

• SING has N

Digits used:

• BIGS → 4, 5, 9, 3

• SING → 9, 4, 3, 2

Common digits: 9, 4, 3
Different digits:

• BIGS has 5

• SING has 2

Since B (in BIGS) is replaced by N (in SING),
the digit 5 is replaced by 2.

Therefore:

• B → 5

• N → 2
