Arrange the given words in the sequence in which they occur in the dictionary.
a. Firmament
b. Finish
c. First
d. Fissure
e. Fiscal
Choose the correct answer from the options given below
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → b, a, c, e, d
Words are compared letter by letter; the first letter that differs decides the order. All five begin with FI, so the third letter comes first.
Third letter: Finish first (N), then Firmament and First (R), then Fiscal and Fissure (S)
Firmament before First (M before S)
Fiscal before Fissure (C before S)
The order is Finish (b), Firmament (a), First (c), Fiscal (e), Fissure (d).
