    Direction: Study the following Information carefully and answer the question given below:
    When a word and number arrangement machine is given an input line of words and numbers, it arranges them following a particular rule. The following is an illustration of input and rearrangement. (All the numbers are two digit numbers)
    Input: 18 42 guidance 83 important for 91 decision making 65
    Step I: decision 42 guidance 43 important for 91 making 65 18
    Step II: 42 decision guidance 83 important 91 making 65 18 for
    Step III: guidance 42 decision 83 important 91 making 18 for 65
    Step IV: 83 guidance 42 decision 91 making 18 for 65 Important
    Step V is the last step of the above arrangement as the intended arrangement is obtained.
    As per the rules followed in the given steps, find out the appropriate steps for the given input.
    Input: balance 87 34 of payment 15 is a 21 must 59 62
    In step I of the arrangement 'a' is related to '87' and '21' is related to '59' following a certain pattern, which of the following is 'payment' related to following the same pattern?

    A)  21

    B)  cannot be determined

    C)  62

    D)  must

    E)  87

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    After careful analysis of the given input and various steps of rearrangement, it is clear that two elements (one number and one word) are re- arranged in each step. In the first step the word which comes first in the alphabetical order moves to the extreme left position and the lowest number moves to the extreme right position. In the second step, the second lowest number moves to the extreme left position and the word which comes second in the alphabetical order moves to the extreme right position. These two steps are continued alternately to get the final output.
    Input : balance 87 34 of payment 15 is a 21 must 59 62
    Step I : a balance 87 34 of payment is 21 must 59 62 15
    Step II : 21 a 87 34 of payment is must 59 62 15 balance
    Step III : is 21 a 87 of payment must 59 6215 balance 34
    Step IV : 59 is 21 a 87 of payment 62 15 balance 24 must
    Step V : of 59 is 21 a 87 payment 15 balance 34 must 62
    Step VI : 87 of 59 is 21 a 15 balance 34 must 62 payment
    In the step I
    \[a\xrightarrow[{}]{+2}87\]
    \[21\xrightarrow[{}]{+2}59\]
    Similarly,
    payment \[\xrightarrow[{}]{+2}21\]
