Option (a) and (b) can be eliminated directly as there are 8 letters in the word so single operation cannot reduce a word size to 5 from 8.
Option (d) and (c) can be eliminated as there is no ‘c’ in the word but ‘licit’ has one ‘c’ so within single operation, we cannot remove as well as add word.
Considering only one operation to have happened, the third word can be Elicit. The correct option is (E).
Answer 2: (D)
Such a letter will be Y as three words can start with Y and the next three can start with Z.
The correct option is (D).
Answer 3: (C)
Option (A), (D) and (E) are eliminated as all the words are not in alphabetical order.
(B) is out because in order to get the second word 2 operations have been performed at the same time. Hence, option (C) is correct.
The correct option is (C).
Answer 4: (D)
Except first word each word is formed by different rule as used for preceding word. Using this if we add one letter to the first word, but after that we can only perform deletion or replacement. In order to maximize the letter count, we should only replace and not delete any letter. So the second and third words would have 6 letters, following which fourth and fifth words would have 7 letters.
Hence, among four words after first word addition of letter can happen for maximum of two times. Therefore, fifth word of sentence can have maximum of 7 litres
The correct option is (D).
Answer 5: (C)
Clean clearn learn Clean cleabn clearn learn Clean cleabn cleadn clearn learn Clean cleabn cleadn cleafn clearn learn.
The correct option is (C).
