III. 'PX' means 'Hello friends'.
A. Only II
B. Only I and III
C. All I, II and III
D. Either I only or II only
E. None of these
Answer: Option E
Solution(By Examveda Team)
To find the code for 'we', we need to have any of the following:(i) 'We are friends' should have only 'We' common with another statement, as in II;
(ii) 'We are friends' should have only 'are' and 'friends' common with another single or two statements, as in I and III. Thus, we need Either II only or I and III only.
