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


Solution : Given:
1. Furlong 2. Mile 3. Inch 4. Yard 5. Foot

The logical order of units in decreasing order is as follows –
Firstly we will arrange a mile, a mile is 1,760 yards or 5,280 feet, and a mile is followed by a furlong is 220 yards or 660 feet. A yard is 3 times greater than a foot. A foot is 12 times greater than an inch and an inch is the smallest unit.
So, Mile→Furlong→Yard→Foot→Inch

So, the order is 2, 1, 4, 5, 3. Hence, the first option is correct.
