Explanation:

Let’s break this down step by step:

- ‘Ashok is big’ is coded as ‘pr 6 8’. So, ‘Ashok’ = 6, ‘is’ = pr, ‘big’ = 8 (order matters).

- ‘Is big are’ is ‘pr pt 8’. Here, ‘is’ = pr, ‘big’ = 8, so ‘are’ = pt.

- ‘Huge people are strong’ = ‘lm pt 7 @’. We already have ‘are’ = pt, so ‘people’ = 7 or lm or @.

Now look for overlap:

- ‘Ashok’ only shows up with ‘is’ and ‘big’—that means ‘Ashok’ must be the one code not repeated elsewhere, which is 6.

- ‘people’ only shows up once, in the set with ‘lm pt 7 @’. Since ‘are’ = pt (from earlier), ‘people’ is either 7, lm, or @.

Check the options:

- Option 1: 6 pt ('pt' is 'are', so this is 'Ashok are'—not right.)

- Option 2: 8 7 ('8' is 'big', 7 could be people, but '8' is not 'Ashok'.)

- Option 3: 6 Im (Assume 'Im' = 'lm' due to typo or visual similarity. '6' is 'Ashok', 'lm' could be 'people'. Makes sense.)

- Option 4: Im @ (no 6, so no 'Ashok' here).

Here’s what this really means: Option 3: 6 Im is the best possible code for ‘Ashok people’.
