Arrange the given words in the sequence in which they occur in the dictionary.
i. Manufacture
ii. Manualism
iii. Manumission
iv. Manual

  1. A
    iv, ii, i, iii
  2. B
    iii, ii, i, iv
  3. C
    ii, iv, i, iii
  4. D
    i, ii, iii, iv

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's order the words step-by-step according to alphabetical standard:
All words start with Manu. Let's check the 5th letter:

i. Manufacture (f)

ii. Manualism (a)

iii. Manumission (m)

iv. Manual (a)

'a' comes first, so we compare Manualism (ii) and Manual (iv):

Manual is a shorter prefix completely contained inside Manualism. Therefore, Manual (iv) comes before Manualism (ii).

Next comes 'f', which gives us Manufacture (i).

Finally comes 'm', which gives us Manumission (iii).

The correct sequential order is iv, ii, i, iii.
