Solution :
Given:
1. Assassination 2. Association 3. Assimilate 4. Assimuthual
Step 1:
Compare the first, second, and third letters of each word. Since all the words have the same letter
A
,
s
, and
s
, so move on to the next letter.
Step 2:
The fourth letter of each word is
a
,
i
, or
o
. Based on the alphabetical order of these letters, we can arrange them – Ass
a
ssination, Ass
i
milate, Ass
i
muthual, Ass
o
ciation.
Step 3:
Compare the sixth letter of (Assim
i
late, Assim
u
thual). Assimilate will come before Assimuthual in the sequence as
i
comes before
u
in the alphabetical system.
So, the sequence is Assassination, Assimilate, Assimuthual, Association, or 1, 3, 4, 2. Hence, the third option is correct.
