Correct Answer: Busted


Solution : Given:
Boring, Blown, Bunker, Busted, Burped

Step 1: Compare the first letter of each word. Since all the words start with the same letter B, move to the next letter.
Step 2: The second letter of each word is – o, l, u, u, u. Based on the alphabetical order of these letters, we can arrange them –  Blown, Boring, Bunker, Busted, Burped
Step 3: Compare the third letter of (Bunker, Busted, Burped). Bunker will come before Burped in the sequence as n comes before r in the alphabetical order, and Burped will come before Busted in the sequence as r comes before s in the alphabetical order. Therefore, the order will be Blown, Boring, Bunker, Burped, Busted.

So, the word Busted appears last in the sequence. Hence, the second option is correct.
