- Each word is represented by a unique number code.

- From 'shoes are shining' (coded as '235'), 'are' is one of '2', '3', or '5'.

- From 'shining stars rotate' (coded as '458'), 'shining' is common with the first sentence. Now, we can deduce 'shining' is '5'.

- Thus in 'shoes are shining' (coded as '235'), 'are' could be '2' or '3'.

- From 'stars are round' (coded as '829'), 'are' is common with the first sentence.

- So, 'are' must be '2' because it’s common between codes '235' and '829'.
