Arrange the given words in the sequence in which they would occur in a dictionary.
1. Lucidity, 2. Labarum, 3. Lamarck, 4. Luddite
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → 2314
In a dictionary, words are compared letter by letter from the left; the first place where two words differ decides which comes first.
All four words begin with L; the second letter is a in Labarum and Lamarck and u in Lucidity and Luddite, so the two La- words come first
Labarum and Lamarck: third letters b and m; b comes first, so Labarum, then Lamarck
Lucidity and Luddite: third letters c and d; c comes first, so Lucidity, then Luddite
Order: Labarum (2), Lamarck (3), Lucidity (1), Luddite (4)
The sequence is 2314.
