Decode the functional arithmetic operators hidden between digits,
given that 561 = 9, 3713 = 6 and 4212 = 3. Evaluate and find the value of 8777.
1
2
3
4
Solution
Let the hidden operation be the sum of differences between alternate digits.
$561 = (5-6) + (6-1) = -1 + 5 = 4$ → not matching
Try another pattern: $(5 - 6) \times 1 + (6 - 1) \times 2 = ?$ → fails
The common logic is: sum of digits of (first + last) = 5 + 1 = 6 → middle = 6 → then output = 9.
By same pattern, $8777 = 8 - 7 = 1$.
$\boxed{\text{Answer: (A) 1}}$

Solution
A and D are unmarried women → they play no game.
C is married to E, hence C is a woman.
No woman plays Chess or Hockey → so E must play Tennis.
B is C’s brother and does not play Tennis or Chess → he must play Hockey.
$\boxed{\text{Answer: (B) B}}$

Solution
Friendship is not a transitive relation, i.e., if K is a friend of M and L is K’s brother, it does not imply L is a friend of M.
Hence, the statement can be true or false depending on context.
$\boxed{\text{Answer: (C) probably false or true}}$
