Ugh I need help with this problem in the logical reasoning section. Uh there's this code thing, so i guess i have to write it out.

Uh...here's the directions...that I don't understand at all...

In the code below, (1) each letter represents the same word in all 3 sentences, (2) each word is represented by only one letter, and (3) in any given sentence, the letters may or may not be presented in the same order as the words.

L.......A........R........R.......Y means
Two seniors helped two juniors

H......E.........A.....R........D means
The Two juniors used Barron's

L.......A..........T......E...........R means
The Juniors helped two sophomores

These are the questions:

1.) Which word is represented by A?
a.two
b. seniors
c.helped
d.junors
e. either 'two' or 'juniors', but cannot determine which one.

2.) Which letter represents 'the'?
f. the letter L
g. the letter R.
h. the letter H.
j. the letter D
k. the letter E

3.) What letter represents "used"?
a. either H or D but cannot determine which one
b. either H,E, or D but cannot determine which one.
c. letter H
d. letter D
e. letter E

-unrelated question-
If Ahmal gets a job. Bing will buy a car. If Bing buys a car, Charles will go to school. If Charles goes to school, Ahmal will get a job.

Based on the information above, which statement must be true?

I.) If Ahmal gets a job, Charles will go to school.
II.) If Charles does not go to school, Bing will not buy a car.
III.) If Ahmal does not get a job, Bing will not buy a car.

-choices-
f. I only
g. II only
h. I and II only
j. II and III only
k. I, II, and III


If you can help me, I will love you forever.

R is two
A is juniors
Y is seniors
T is sophomores
E is the
L is helped
i don't know about used and barron's. one is D and one is H. there's no way to figure it out.

SO THEN:

1.) Which word is represented by A?
a.two
b. seniors
c.helped
d.juniors
e. either 'two' or 'juniors', but cannot determine which one.

2.) Which letter represents 'the'?
f. the letter L
g. the letter R.
h. the letter H.
j. the letter D
k. the letter E

3.) What letter represents "used"?
a. either H or D but cannot determine which one
b. either H,E, or D but cannot determine which one.
c. letter H
d. letter D
e. letter E

g. II only
h. I and II only
j. II and III only
k. I, II, and III

it's all of the above and none of the above, as the first and last ones depend on each other.
