- BS P Q R
- CR S P Q
- DP S R Q
Correct answer
A. S Q R P
Step-by-step solution
The correct sequence of the jumbled parts is S Q R P.
Starting with S, 'it is widely believed that the parliamentary system differs' naturally leads to Q, 'from a non-parliamentary system', completing the comparison. This is followed by R, 'in as much as the former is', which introduces the reason for the difference, and concludes with P, 'more representative than the latter'.
The complete sentence reads: 'It is widely believed that the parliamentary system differs from a non-parliamentary system in as much as the former is more representative than the latter.'
Answer: S Q R P

The complete sentence reads: 'It is widely believed that the parliamentary system differs from a non-parliamentary system in as much as the former is more representative than the latter.'
