Question
Which of the following addresses are identical to each other:
1. S. Iyer 17-D, Coral Residency, Thiruvananthapuram, 695014
2. S. Iyer 17-D, Coral Residency, Thiruvananthapuram, 695014
3. S. Iyer 17-D Coral Residency, Thiruvananthapuram, 695014
4. S. Iyer 17-D Coral Residency, Thiruvananthapuram, 695013
- A. 1 and 2 (Correct answer)
- B. 1 and 3
- C. 2 and 4
- D. 3 and 4
Correct Answer
Option A — 1 and 2
Detailed Solution & Explanation
The correct answer is 1 and 2.
Key Points
- Compare the four entries field by field — name, flat number, building, city, PIN.
- Items 1 and 2 are character-for-character identical, including the comma after "17-D" and the PIN 695014.
- Item 3 drops the comma after 17-D.
- Item 4 drops that same comma and changes the PIN to 695013.
- Only the first pair matches.
Additional Information
- Punctuation counts as part of the string in these questions; a missing comma is as disqualifying as a changed digit, and it is far easier to overlook.
- The construction here is deliberate: item 3 differs by punctuation alone, so anyone checking only words and numbers would wrongly pair 1 with 3.
- Adopt a fixed comparison order and stop at the first mismatch. Consistency of routine, not reading speed, is what makes this question type reliable marks.
