In these questions there are four words. Three of the words have been given a code. The codes are not written in the same order as the words. Work out the correct answers and choose the correct answer from the four choices available. A good way to work out these codes is to find two words which share the same letter, and then look for two number codes which share a number IN THE SAME POSITION AS THE SHARED LETTERS. These are tricky and can be quite difficult. Take some time practicing these questions and be careful to write down the code for each word as you find it. An example has been done for you.
Two of the other words have the I vowel in them, in the same place (3rd position), which suggests that the groups 9021 and 4726 must stand for HAIL and GRIN (or possibly, the other way round). DOGS has a G in 3rd place (as did HIGH, for which we don't have the code), so DOGS must be 8395 and 9 therefore stands for G, so 9021 must be GRIN.
LASH starts with the end of HAIL (=6); A from 2nd place in HAIL (=7) ... and the only available Answer starting this way is No.2
