Question
Writing in Alphabetical order, which name of the following will appear in the last?
- A. Mahinder
- B. Mohinder (Correct answer)
- C. Mohender
- D. Mahendra
Correct Answer
Option B — Mohinder
Detailed Solution & Explanation
The correct answer is Mohinder.
Key Points
- This is an alphabetical ordering (dictionary order) question.
- The four names must be arranged exactly as they would appear in a dictionary, comparing letter by letter from left to right.
- All four names begin with M.
- At the second letter, 'a' comes before 'o', so Mahendra and Mahinder are placed before Mohender and Mohinder.
- Between Mahendra and Mahinder, the fourth letter decides: 'e' before 'i', so Mahendra precedes Mahinder.
- Between Mohender and Mohinder, again the fourth letter decides: 'e' before 'i', so Mohender comes before Mohinder.
- The complete dictionary order is: Mahendra → Mahinder → Mohender → Mohinder.
- The name appearing last is therefore Mohinder, which makes option (B) correct.
