A word arrangement machine, when given a particular input, rearranges it following a particular rule. The following is the illustration of the input and the steps of arrangement: Input: Pull the cover and then push into Step I: Pull the then and cover push into Step II: then the pull into push cover and Step III: into pull the then and cover push Step IV: into pull and then the cover push and so on. As per the rule followed in the above steps, find out the appropriate step for the given input or vice versa in the following questions. If Step I of an input is ‘Play and jump until you tired fully’, what would be step VI of the input?

Options

  1. Ajump fully tired you and play until
  2. Btired fully jump until play and you
  3. Ctired fully play until jump and you
  4. Dplay fully tired you and jump until

Correct answer

C. tired fully play until jump and you

Step-by-step solution

Here the rule followed is: Input to step I: The third and fifth words get interchanged among themselves. Step I to Step II: The group of first three words gets reversed and so does the group of last four. Step II to Step III: The group of first four words gets reversed and so does the group of last three. Step III to Step IV: Same as input to step I. For convenience, if we assign nos. to each word of the input as pull-1, the-2, cover-3, and-4, then-5, push-6 and into-7, then we get,  Input: 1234567 Step I: 1254367 Step II: 5217634 Step III: 7125436 Step IV: 7145236 Step V: 4176325 Step VI: 6714523 Step VII: 6754123 Step VIII: 5763214\begin{array}{llllllll} \text { Input: }& 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 & 7 \\ \text { Step I: }& 1 & 2 & 5 & 4 & 3 & 6 & 7 \\ \text { Step II: }& 5 & 2 & 1 & 7 & 6 & 3 & 4 \\ \text { Step III: }& 7 & 1 & 2 & 5 & 4 & 3 & 6 \\ \text { Step IV: }& 7 & 1 & 4 & 5 & 2 & 3 & 6 \\ \text { Step V: }& 4 & 1 & 7 & 6 & 3 & 2 & 5 \\ \text { Step VI: }& 6 & 7 & 1 & 4 & 5 & 2 & 3 \\ \text { Step VII: }& 6 & 7 & 5 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 \\ \text { Step VIII: }& 5 & 7 & 6 & 3 & 2 & 1 & 4 \end{array}
