Solution :

1. Garbage 2. Garrulous 3. Gabber 4. Garble
Step 1:
Compare the first and the second letter of each word. Since all the words start with the same letter
G
and are followed by
a
, move on to the next letter.
Step 2:
The third letter of each word is either
b
or
r
. Based on the alphabetical order of these letters, we can arrange them – Ga
b
ber, Ga
r
bage, Ga
r
rulous, Ga
r
ble
Step 3:
Compare the fourth letter of (Gar
b
age, Gar
r
ulous, Gar
b
le). Garbage, Garble will come before Garrulous in the sequence as
b
comes before
r
in the alphabetical system.
Step 4:
Compare the fifth letter of (Garb
a
ge, Garb
l
e). Garb
a
ge will come before Garb
l
