The following is the illustration of the input and the steps of arrangement: Input: Ja Ma Da Ch Ha Bo Ka Step I: Da Ja Ma Ha Bo Ka Ch Step II: Ha Da Ja Ma Ka Ch Bo Step III: Ja Ha Da Ka Ch Bo Ma and so on. As per the rule followed in the above steps, find out the appropriate answers in the following questions.

Options

  1. AStep V
  2. BStep VI
  3. CStep VII
  4. DStep VIII

Correct answer

B. Step VI

Step-by-step solution

For the sake of convenience, assign numbers to each word of the input. Input: JaMaDaChHaBoKa\begin{array}{lllllll}Ja & Ma & Da & Ch & Ha & Bo & Ka\end{array}1234567\begin{array}{lllllll}&&&1 && 2 && 3 && 4 & 5 && 6 && 7 \end{array} Now, in Step I, the third word comes at the beginning and the first and second words are pushed rightwards. Also, the fourth word goes at the end and the remaining words are pushed leftwards. In Step II, the fourth word from the previous step comes at the beginning while the first three words are pushed rightwards. Also, the fifth word of Step I goes at the end and the remaining words are pushed leftwards. These steps are repeated thereafter For convenience, we plot the movement of each word in each step by the numbers assigned to them in the input.  Input: 1234567 Step I: 3125674 Step II: 5312746 Step III: 1537462 Step IV: 7153624 Step V: 5716243 Step VI: 6571432 Step VII: 7654321 Step VIII: 4765213\begin{array}{lcccccccc} \text { Input: }& 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 & 7 & \\ \text { Step I: }& 3 & 1 & 2 & 5 & 6 & 7 & 4 & \\ \text { Step II: }& 5 & 3 & 1 & 2 & 7 & 4 & 6 & \\ \text { Step III: }& 1 & 5 & 3 & 7 & 4 & 6 & 2 \\ \text { Step IV: }& 7 & 1 & 5 & 3 & 6 & 2 & 4 \\ \text { Step V: }& 5 & 7 & 1 & 6 & 2 & 4 & 3 \\ \text { Step VI: }& 6 & 5 & 7 & 1 & 4 & 3 & 2 & \\ \text { Step VII: }& 7 & 6 & 5 & 4 & 3 & 2 & 1 \\ \text { Step VIII: }& 4 & 7 & 6 & 5 & 2 & 1 & 3 & \end{array}
