Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option C

HEN

Solution :

Correct Answer: HEN

To find which word will be at the third position when arranged in alphabetical order, let us look at the given list of words:
CAT, HEN, BAG, LIP, RUN

Now, let us examine the first letter of each word to arrange them alphabetically (from A to Z):
1. BAG (starts with B)
2. CAT (starts with C)
3. HEN (starts with H)
4. LIP (starts with L)
5. RUN (starts with R)

Arranging the complete words in alphabetical order gives:
BAG, CAT, HEN, LIP, RUN

Counting from the left to find the word at the third position:
- 1st position: BAG
- 2nd position: CAT
- 3rd position: HEN
- 4th position: LIP
- 5th position: RUN

Therefore, the word at the third position is HEN.
