Correct Answer: Determination
Solution :
Given:
1. Degrade 2. Density 3. Deterioration 4. Determination
Step 1:
Compare the first letter of each word. Since all the words start with the same letter
D
, then move on to the next letter.
Step 2:
Compare the second letter of each word. Since all the words have the same second letter
e
, then move on to the next letter.
Step 3:
Compare the third letter of each word, and the letters are
g
,
n
and
t
. Based on the alphabetical series the order is – De
g
rade, De
n
sity, De
t
erioration, De
t
ermination.
Step 4:
Compare the sixth letter of (Deter
i
oration, Deter
m
ination). Deterioration will come before Determination in the sequence as
i
comes before
m
in the alphabetical system.
So the sequence is Degrade, Density, Deterioration, Determination.
Therefore, the fourth word is Determination. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
