Select the option that represents the correct order of the given words as they would appear in an English dictionary.

1. Flame

2. Flight

3. Flavor

4. Flicker

The correct option representing the dictionary order of the given words is 1, 3, 4, 2.

To arrange the given words in the order they would appear in an English dictionary, we compare them letter by letter from left to right:

1. Flame
2. Flight
3. Flavor
4. Flicker

Step 1: Compare the first two letters.
All four words start with the prefix "Fl".

Step 2: Compare the third letter of each word.
• Flame (Flame) → 3rd letter is 'a'
• Flight (Flight) → 3rd letter is 'i'
• Flavor (Flavor) → 3rd letter is 'a'
• Flicker (Flicker) → 3rd letter is 'i'

Since 'a' precedes 'i' in the English alphabet, the words with third letter 'a' (Flame, Flavor) will appear before the words with third letter 'i' (Flight, Flicker).

Step 3: Compare words starting with "Fla" (1. Flame, 3. Flavor).
• Flame (Flame) → 4th letter is 'm'
• Flavor (Flavor) → 4th letter is 'v'
Since 'm' comes before 'v' in alphabetical order, Flame (1) comes before Flavor (3).
So, the first two words are 1, 3.

Step 4: Compare words starting with "Fli" (2. Flight, 4. Flicker).
• Flicker (Flicker) → 4th letter is 'c'
• Flight (Flight) → 4th letter is 'g'
Since 'c' comes before 'g' in alphabetical order, Flicker (4) comes before Flight (2).
So, the next two words are 4, 2.

Combining these results, the correct dictionary order is 1, 3, 4, 2 (Flame → Flavor → Flicker → Flight).
