Correct Answer: Unasked


Solution : Given:
1. Unaffected 2. Unarmed 3. Unasked 4. Unattached 5. Unauthorized

Step 1: Compare the first, second, and third letter of each word. Since all the words start with the same letter U and, are followed by n and a , then move on to the next letter.
Step 2: The fourth letter of each word is f , r , s , t or u . Based on the alphabetical order of these letters, we can arrange them – Una f fected, Una r med, Una s ked, Una t tached, Una u thorized.
So, the sequence is Unaffected, Unarmed, Unasked, Unattached, Unauthorized.

Therefore, Unasked is in the third position. Hence, the third option is correct.
