    Input:   garden heat 36 in 28 below normal in 23 over
    Which step number will be the following output? 'in 23 heat 36 in 28 garden below normal over'

    A)  Step III                        

    B)  Step IV      

    C)  Step VI            

    D)  Step V       

    E)  There will be no such step

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    The machine first rearranges words which are along with numbers according to the ascending order of sum of the digits of the numbers. And then remaining words are arranged in descending order of the length of words. In case words are of equal length, then they are arranged in reverse alphabetical order. In the last step, except the words that are along with numbers, the place value of the first letter of the words is written in the place of words in alphabet. Input: garden heat 36 in 28 below normal in 23 over Step I.   in 23 garden heat 36 in 28 below normal over Step II. in 23 heat 36 garden in 28 below normal over Step III. in 23 heat 36 in 28 garden below normal over Step IV. in 23 heat 36 in 28 normal garden below over Step V. in 23 heat 36 in 28 14 72 15
