    B The facts of both statements 1 & 2 together are not sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only the facts of statement 1 are sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only the facts of statement 2 are sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    "New watch show time" means 'Ny Wy Sy Ty'   The code for 'bad’ cannot be obtained from the above statement as 'bad’ is not present in it.   "Old watch bad" means ‘Oy Ty By’   The code for 'bad' cannot be obtained from the above statement as the code for other words and 'bad' are not specifically mentioned.   By combining statement I and Il:   New watch show time à Ny Wy Sy Ty   Old watch bad à Oy Ty By   From above, it is clear that the code for ‘bad’ may be Oy or By. So, the facts of both statements 1 and 2 together are not sufficient to answer the question. Hence, the correct answer is (B).
