A word and number arrangement machine when given an input line of words and numbers rearranges them following a particular rule in each step. The following is an illustration of input rearrangement.
`{:("input : by now 25 72 sight 37 15 home"),("Step I : sight by now 25 72 37 15 home"),("step II: sight 15 by now 25 72 37 home"),("Step III :sight 15 now by 25 72 37 home"),("Step IV:sight 15 now 25 by 72 37 home"),("Step V: sight 15 now 25 home by 72 37"),("Step VI: sight 15 now 25 home 37 by 72"):}`
And step VI is the last step of the rearrangement. As per the rules followed in the above steps, find out in each of the following questions the appropriate step for the given input.
Step II of an input is : victory 19 22 34 age bear high 24.
Which of the following will be step VII ?

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

After analysing the sample sequence, the pattern/rule
in each step for a word and number arrangement is as follows :
First step : Word comes last in the dictionary or in
alphabetical order shifts to the left most position. The
remaining terms shifts rightwards.
Second step : Lowest number or smallest number shifts to
the second position. The remaining terms shifts rightwards.
So, the words are arranged in reverse alphabetical order
while the numbers are arranged in an ascending order
alternately.
Note : At each step, position of only one term is altered.
Step II : victory 19 22 34 age bear high 24.
Step III : victory 19 high 22 34 age bear 24.
Step IV : victory 19 high 22 bear 34 age 24.
Step V : victory 19 high 22 bear 24 34 age.
Step VI : victory 19 high 22 bear 24 age 34.
Therefore, step VI is the last step.
