Question

After arranging the given words according to dictionary order, which word will come at 'Fourth' position?
1. Slur
2. Suit
3. Slug
4. Slung
5. Slump

A.

Slur

B.

Slung

C.

Suit

D.

Slug

Correct option is A

Given Words: Slur, Suit, Slug, Slung, Slump
First Letters: All words begin with the letter S.
Second Letters: All words still have the letter l as the second letter, so we move to the third letter.
Third Letters: Slur, Slug, Slung, and Slump have u as the third letter.
Suit has a different third letter (i). Since i comes after u alphabetically, Suit will be the last word
Fourth Letters: For words starting with Slu:
1. Slug: Fourth letter is g.
2. Slump: Fourth letter is m.
3. Slung: Fourth letter is n.
4. Slur: Fourth letter is r.
Alphabetical order of these letters is:
· g (Slug)
· m (Slump)
· n (Slung)
· r (Slur)
Arrange the Words
1. Slug (comes first because g comes before other letters)
2. Slump (comes second because m follows g alphabetically)
3. Slung (comes third because n follows m alphabetically)
4. Slur (comes fourth because r follows n alphabetically)
5. Suit (comes last because i in "Suit" is alphabetically after u in the other words)
Final Order:
1.Slug, 2. Slump, 3. Slung, 4.Slur, 5. Suit
Thus, correct option is (a).
