Arrange the given words in the sequence in which they would occur in a dictionary.
1. Washington, 2. Wtonashing, 3. Washtoning, 4. Washgtionn
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → 4132
In a dictionary, words are compared letter by letter from the left; the first place where two words differ decides which comes first.
The second letter is a in Washington, Washtoning and Washgtionn, and t in Wtonashing, so Wtonashing is last
The other three all begin with Wash; the fifth letters are g (Washgtionn), i (Washington) and t (Washtoning)
Order: Washgtionn (4), Washington (1), Washtoning (3), Wtonashing (2)
The sequence is 4132.
