Correct Answer: 4, 5, 3, 1, 2

Solution : Given:
1. Fraudulent 2. Fraught 3. Fraternity 4. Franchise 5. Frantic

Step 1: Since all the words start with the same letter F , so move on to the next letter.
Step 2: The second and third letters of each word are the same, i.e., r , and a . So, move on to the next letter.
Step 3: Compare the fourth letter of (Fra u dulent, Fra u ght, Fra t ernity, Fra n chise, Fra n tic). (Franchise, Frantic) will come before Fraudulent, Fraught, and Fraternity as n comes before u and t . Similarly, Fraternity will come before Fraudulent, and Fraught as t comes before u according to the alphabetical system.
Step 4: Compare the fifth letter of (Fran c hise, Fran t ic), and (Frau d ulent, Frau g ht). Franchise will come before Frantic as c comes before t according to the alphabetical system. Similarly, Fraudulent will come before Fraught as d comes before g according to the alphabetical system.

So, the sequence is Franchise, Frantic, Fraternity, Fraudulent, Fraught, or 4, 5, 3, 1, 2. Hence, the second option is correct.
