    Direction: Bead the given information and answer the 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 I. 'go now 52 38 17 for again 65'
    Step I 65 go now 52 38 17 for again
    Step II 65 again go now 52 38 17 for
    Step III 65 again 52 go now 38 17 for
    Step IV 65 again 52 for go now 38 17
    Step V 65 again 52 for 38 go now 17
    Step VI 65 again 52 for 38 go 17 now
    Step VI is the last step of the rearrangement.
    As per the rules followed in the above steps, find out in each of the following questions the appropriate step for the given input.
    Input 'home turf 39 24 86 44 roll over'
    Which of the following steps will be the last?

    A) X                                 

    B) IX

    C) VIII                              

    D) VII

    E) None of these

    Correct Answer: E

    Solution :

    In Step I, the largest number goes to the extreme left pushing rest of the line rightward; in the next step the word that comes first in alphabetical order goes to the second position from left pushing rest of the line rightward, thus the numbers and the words get arranged alternately till all the numbers are in descending order and all the words are in alphabetical order.
    [e] Input home turf 39 24 86 44 roll over
    Step I 86 home turf 39 24 44 roll over
    Step II 86 home 44 turf 39 24 roll over
    Step III 86 home 44 over turf 39 24 roll
    Step IV 86 home 44 over 39 turf 24 roll
    Step V 86 home 44 over 39 roll turf 24
    Step VI 86 home 44 over 39 roll 24 turf
    Clearly, last step = Step VI
