Select the option that gives the order in which the given words appear in an English dictionary.
1. Topology, 2. Topper, 3. Tolerance, 4. Together, 5. Tomorrow
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → 43512
In a dictionary, words are compared letter by letter from the left; the first place where two words differ decides which comes first.
All five words begin with To; the third letters are g (Together), l (Tolerance), m (Tomorrow) and p (Topology, Topper)
So the order starts Together, Tolerance, Tomorrow, followed by the two Top- words
Topology and Topper both begin with Top; the fourth letters are o and p, so Topology comes before Topper
Order: Together (4), Tolerance (3), Tomorrow (5), Topology (1), Topper (2)
The sequence is 43512.
