Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Here, logic is very simple. It is a case of Arrangement. Input and following steps give the following information:
In step I the word which comes first according to alphabetical order rearranges first.
In the second step the highest among the given numbers gets arranged and occupies the place after the word arranged in step I.
These two steps get repeated alternately. Thus, in the last step all the words get arranged alphabetically whereas numbers get arranged in descending order.
If any word or number is already arranged in any step, the next number or word is arranged.
'17' cannot be before 'sky'
