Correct Answer: 1, 5, 2, 3, 4
Solution : Given: 1. Clocklipe 2. Cloddier 3. Clodpates 4. Clodpolls 5. Clockwise
Step 1: The first three letters of the word are the same – c, l, o, so move to the next letter. Step 2: The fourth letter of each word is – c, d . Based on the alphabetical order of these letters, we can arrange them – Clo c klipe, Clo c kwise, Clo d dier, Clo d pates, Clo d polls Step 3: Compare the sixth letter of (Clock l ipe, Clock w ise) and the fifth letter of (Clod d ier, Clod p ates, Clod p olls). Clocklipe will come before Clockwise in the sequence as l comes before w in the alphabetical system. Similarly, Cloddier will come before (Clodpates, Clodpolls). Step 4: Compare the sixth letter of (Clodp a tes, Clodp o lls). Clodpates will come before Clodpolls in the sequence as a comes before o in the alphabetical system.
The sequence is Clocklipe, Clockwise, Cloddier, Clodpates, Clodpolls, or 1, 5, 2, 3, 4. Hence, the first option is correct.
