Correct Answer :

Option A

BAC

Solution :

The correct option is BAC.

To make the given sentence grammatically correct and contextually meaningful, let's analyze the highlighted words and their positions in the sentence:

"The company works clients (A) hard to satisfy its quite (B) who submit frequent demands (C) for prompt deliveries."

Step-by-step logical reasoning:

1. Position (A): Look at the structure "works [word] hard to satisfy...". The word "clients" does not fit right after "works" here because the modifier "quite" at position (B) precedes a noun clause/phrase ("quite clients" is grammatically incorrect). Moving quite (B) to position (A) gives the phrase "works quite hard", where "quite" correctly modifies the adverb "hard".

2. Position (B): Look at the sentence after shifting "quite": "...satisfy its [word] who submit...". The relative pronoun "who" refers to people/customers. Placing clients (A) at position (B) creates "...satisfy its clients who submit...", which is grammatically sound and contextually logical.

3. Position (C): The word demands (C) is already correctly placed in "...who submit frequent demands for prompt deliveries." as "frequent demands" acts as the direct object of the verb "submit". Therefore, (C) remains in its original position.

Combining these rearrangements, word (B) move to position (A), word (A) moves to position (B), and word (C) remains at position (C). Thus, the correct sequence of words is BAC.

Corrected Sentence:
"The company works quite hard to satisfy its clients who submit frequent demands for prompt deliveries."
