Input: Father needs to check on the boy

Solution

The arrangement is made by the last letter of each word.

The last letters of the seven words of the sample sequence input were e, s, d, n, g, t, and m.

In the final step, the words were arranged as t, s, n, m, g, d, and e, i.e., in descending order.

In each step, one letter was fixed in its last step position.

In the given input, the last letters are r, s, o, k, n, e, and y.

The first step: y, r, s, o, k, n, and e.

The second step: y, s, r, o, k, n, and e.

The third step: y, s, r, o, n, k, and e.

Thus, the correct answer is 3 and the correct option is D.
