Step VI is the last step of the above arrangement.


As per the rules followed in the steps given above, find out in each of the following questions the appropriate step for the given input.


Input: 8 10 unroffs 2 unroots 12 unrobed unrolls 6 unrobes

B) Step V
C) Step VI
D) There will be no such step
Solution:

Ans: (d) 

The machine rearranges one number and one word in each step. Words are arranged in alphabetical order from right to left whereas numbers are arranged in an order of half of the square of the number starting from the smallest number and the number arrangement concept is - half of the  number of terms in the given input + 1 and count the position of number from the word which was arranged at first position in Step I.

Example : \(\frac{12}{2}\) + 1 = 7 and  \(\frac{10}{2}\)+ 1 =6 


Input: 8 10 unroffs 2 unroots 12 unrobed unrolls 6 unrobes

Step I : unrobed 8 10 unroffs unroots 2 12 unrolls 6 unrobes

Step II : unrobes unrobed 8 10 unroffs 2 18 unroots 12 unrolls 

Step III: unroffs unrobes unrobed 10 unroots 2 18 32 12 unrolls

Step IV : unrolls unroffs unrobes unrobed unroots 2 18 32 50 12

Step V : unroots unrolls unroffs unrobes unrobed  2 18 32 50 72
