Correct Answer: 4, 2, 5, 3, 1
Solution : Given: 1. Dillydallying 2. Dillydallied 3. Dillydally 4. Dilled 5. Dillydallies
Step 1: The first four letters of each word are the same: d, i, l, l, move to the next letter. Step 2: The fifth letter of each word is: e, y. Based on the alphabetical order of these letters, we can arrange them: Dilled, Dillydallying, Dillydallied, Dillydally, Dillydallies. Step 3: Compare the tenth letter of (Dillydallying, Dillydallied, Dillydally, Dillydallies). (Dillydallied, Dillydallies) will come before (Dillydallying, Dillydally) in the sequence as i comes before y in the alphabetical system. Step 4: Compare the twelfth letter of (Dillydallied, Dillydallies). Dillydallied will come before Dillydallies in the sequence as d comes before s in the alphabetical system. Similarly, Dillydally(10-letter word) will come before Dillydallying(13-letter word).
The sequence is Dilled, Dillydallied, Dillydallies, Dillydally, Dillydallying, or 4, 2, 5, 3, 1. Hence, the second option is correct.
