Instructions

Read the following sets of four sentences and arrange them in the most logical sequence to form a meaningful and coherent paragraph.

Question 44

I. Doubts linger about Facebook’s ability to be a business. Financial markets had also cratered since the Microsoft deal.
II. Big, as that is, it’s considerably less than the $15 billion valuation that Microsoft and Li Ka-shing accepted in October 2007.
III. Milner’s confidence that Facebook will eventually be profitable at a gigantic scale is what emboldened him to invest initially at a price that valued the company at $10 billion.
IV. But Milner’s enthusiasm is such that not only did he buy stock from Facebook, he will also be spending as much as $300 million more buying stock from employees and outside investors

Solution

I and IV and III and II are mandatory pairs. 
III and II is a mandatory pair because the 10 million talked in III is compared to 15 million in II.
I and IV is a mandatory pair because I talks about doubts over Facebook's ability to be a business and Milner is still enthusiastic about it (IV).
III should come before I because, the Microsoft deal in I is given in III
Hence, the correct order is III, II, I, IV.
