Directions: Put the following words in the order in which they would appear in an English dictionary.

1. Grapes
2. Graphic
3. Grammar
4. Gravity
5. Grand

The correct option is 3, 5, 1, 2, 4.

To arrange words in the order in which they appear in an English dictionary, we compare their letters from left to right in alphabetical order.

Given Words:
1. Grapes
2. Graphic
3. Grammar
4. Gravity
5. Grand

Step 1: Compare the first three letters
All five words begin with the identical three-letter prefix: G-R-A.
Since the first three letters are identical, we compare the 4^th letter of each word:

• 1. Grapes → 4^th letter is p
• 2. Graphic → 4^th letter is p
• 3. Grammar → 4^th letter is m
• 4. Gravity → 4^th letter is v
• 5. Grand → 4^th letter is n

Step 2: Order words based on the 4^th letter
Arranging the 4^th letters (m, n, p, v) in alphabetical sequence:
1. 'm' comes first → 3. Grammar (1^st position)
2. 'n' comes next → 5. Grand (2^nd position)
3. 'p' comes third → shared by 1. Grapes and 2. Graphic
4. 'v' comes last → 4. Gravity (5^th position)

Step 3: Break the tie between "Grapes" and "Graphic"
Both words share the first four letters (G-R-A-P), so we compare their 5^th letters:
• 1. Grapes → 5^th letter is e
• 2. Graphic → 5^th letter is h

Since 'e' comes before 'h' in the alphabet, 1. Grapes comes before 2. Graphic.
• 1. Grapes takes the 3^rd position.
• 2. Graphic takes the 4^th position.

Step 4: Final Dictionary Order
1. 3. Grammar
2. 5. Grand
3. 1. Grapes
4. 2. Graphic
5. 4. Gravity

Therefore, the correct sequence is 3, 5, 1, 2, 4.
