Now, let us sort the number of items in the previous table in descending order. You will get
                  the following data:


                                 Name of the item                                 Number of the item

                    1.  Shuttle Cock                                                         7


                    2.  Football                                                             5

                    3.  Hockey Stick                                                         5


                    4.  Chair                                                                4

                    5.  Table                                                                3


                  Decoding

                  Data can also be represented in the form of a hidden/secret message, called coded data.
                  The hidden message can be in the form of the symbol, number, picture, letter, or pattern.
                  The process of converting a hidden message to a meaningful text is called decoding.

                  Look at the code below used to solve the sums.

                  Code:

                   A = 1         B = 2        C = 3        D = 4        E = 5        F = 6        G = 7         H = 8


                  Sums:

                  1.   A × B    =  B         2.   E × A    =  E        3.    B × C    =  F        4.    D × B    =  H

                       If,      G      O       L       D                          M      E      D      A      L

                                                                   and


                                5      %       2       #                          4      3      #      S      2

                       then, find the code for the word ‘MODEL'.
