Question 31

Which of the following will be step 14 for the given input:

Divide the whole sequence into group of words of 4, 2 and 4 so in the input the-

First group will be- Smile Nile Style MileΒ 

Second group will beΒ -Β Shine Wine

ThirdΒ group will beΒ -Β Mine Swine Bovine Feline

In step 1 the 1 and 2 of Third group are exchanging their position with the 3 and 4 respectively i.e.Β Β Mine SwineΒ are exchanging their position withΒ Bovine Feline respectively with everything else constant

therefore step 1 is- Smile NileΒ  StyleΒ Β  MileΒ Β  Shine WineΒ  Bovine FelineΒ  Mine Β Β  Swine

In step 2 the 1 and 2 of First group are exchanging their position with the 3 and 4 respectively i.e.Β Smile Nile are exchanging their position withΒ Style Mile respectively with everything else constant

therefore step 2 is-Β StyleΒ  MileΒ  Smile NileΒ Β Β  Shine WineΒ  Bovine FelineΒ  MineΒ  Β Swine

In step 3 the 1 and 2 of Second group are exchanging their position i.e.Β Β Shine is exchanging it's position with WineΒ with everything else constant

therefore step 3 is-Β Style Mile Smile Nile Wine Shine Bovine Feline Mine Swine

In step 4 the 1 and 2 of First group are exchanging their position i.e.Β  Style is exchanging it's position with MileΒ , 3Β and 4 of First group are exchanging their position i.e.Β Β Smile is exchanging it's position with Nile and SimilarlyΒ the 1 and 2 of Third group are exchanging their positionΒ i.e.Β  Bovine is exchanging it's position with FelineΒ , 3Β and 4 of Third group are exchanging their position i.e. Mine is exchanging it's position with Swine with the positions of Shine and Wine remaining same

therefor step 4 is-Β Mile Style Nile Smile Wine Shine Feline Bovine SwineΒ  Mine

In step 5 the 1 and 2 of First group are exchanging their position with the 3 and 4 respectively i.e. Mile Style are exchanging their position withΒ Nile Smile respectively and the 1 and 2 of Third group are exchanging their position with the 3 and 4 respectively i.e. Feline BovineΒ are exchanging their position withΒ Swine Mine respectively with everything else constant

therefor step 5 is-Β Nile Smile Mile Style Wine Shine Swine Mine Feline Bovine

In step 6 the 1 and 2 of Third group are exchanging their position with the 3 and 4 respectively i.e.Β Swine MineΒ are exchanging their position withΒ Feline Bovine respectively with everything else constant

therefor step 6 is-Β Nile Smile Mile Style Wine Shine Feline Bovine SwineΒ  Mine

In step 7 the 1 and 2 of First group are exchanging their position with the 3 and 4 respectively i.e.Β Nile Smile are exchanging their position withΒ Mile Style respectively with everything else constant

therefor step 7 is-Β MileΒ  StyleΒ  NileΒ Β Β  Smile WineΒ  Shine FelineΒ  Bovine SwineΒ  Mine

As can be observed the pattern is repeating

therefore step 8 will beΒ MileΒ  StyleΒ  NileΒ Β Β  Smile Shine Wine FelineΒ  Bovine SwineΒ  Mine

step 9- StyleΒ Mile Smile Nile Shine Wine Bovine Feline Mine Swine

step 10- Smile NileΒ StyleΒ Mile Shine Wine Mine Swine Bovine Feline

step 11- Smile NileΒ StyleΒ Mile Shine Wine Bovine Feline Mine Swine

step 12- StyleΒ MileΒ Smile Nile Shine WineΒ Bovine FelineΒ Mine Swine

step 13-Β StyleΒ MileΒ Smile Nile Wine Shine Bovine FelineΒ Mine Swine

step 14- Mile Style Nile Smile Wine Shine Feline Bovine Swine Mine

Therefore the answer is option 'C'
