Question 71. Study the following information carefully and answer the given questions: A word and number arrangement machine when given an input line of words and numbers rearranges them following a particular rule in each step. The following is an illustration of input and rearrangement:Input: wind packet 19 7 back 12 task 34Step I: 34 wind packet 19 7 back 12 taskStep II: 34 back wind packet 19 7 12 taskStep III: 34 back 19 wind packet 7 12 taskStep IV: 34 back 19 packet wind 7 12 taskStep V: 34 back 19 packet 12 wind 7 taskStep VI: 34 back 19 packet 12 task wind 7Step VII: 34 back 19 packet 12 task 7 windAs per the rules followed in the above steps, find out in each of the following questions the appropriate step for the given input.If step I of an input is "59 bead tenure father 38 11 ultimate 24", which of the following will be step III?
  1.    59 bead 39 tenure 11 father ultimate 24

Answer: Option D. -> 59 bead 38 father tenure 11 ultimate 24


The logic is the words get arranged in alphabetical order. Where as the numbers get arranged in descending order. Numbers occupy odd places the final steps while words occupy even positions. When any element gets arranged the previous elements occupying that position shifts one place towards right.Step I: 59 bead tenure father 38 11 ultimate 24Step II: 59 bead 38 tenure father 11 ultimate 24Step III: 59 bead 38 father tenure 11 ultimate 24


Question 72.

Answer: Option D. -> Cannot be determined


The logic is the words get arranged in alphabetical order. Where as the numbers get arranged in descending order. Numbers occupy odd places the final steps while words occupy even positions. When any element gets arranged the previous elements occupying that position shifts one place towards right.
Since it is a case of arrangement, we cannot obtain with certainly.

Answer: Option D. -> Cannot be determined


From the last step it is clear that there are two alternating series of numbers. One in descending order and the other in ascending order. When we go through input to step I, we find that the largest number because the first and remaining numbers shift rightward. In the next step the smallest number becomes the second and the rest shift rightward. These two steps continue alternately untill the two alternate series are formed.This step cannot be determined.

From the last step it can be concluded that words and numbers are arranged alternately. Word with least number of alters shifts to the leftmost position followed by the least number among the given numbers. In case of two words with number of letters, words are arranged as per their dictionary order. For getting arranged they are interchanged with the word/number whose place it occupies.Input: like tea 115 1264 eat 151 gateStep I: eat tea 115 1264 like 151 gateStep II: eat 115 tea 1264 like 151 gateStep III: eat 115 tea 151 like 1264 gate
