Directions (1-5): Read the following information carefully and answer the questions given below:
A word and number arrangement machine when given an input line of words and numbers rearranges them following a particular rule and generates stepwise outputs till the arrangement is complete following that rule.Following is an illustration of input and steps of rearrangement till the last step.
Input: time 16 fix 65 and 27 we 31 cover 57 box 49
Step I: 651 time 16 fix and 27 we 31 cover box 49 572
Step II: we 651 16 fix and 27 31 cover box 49 572 time
Step III: 493 we 651 16 fix and 27 cover box 572 time 314
Step IV: fix 493 we 651 16 and 27 box 572 time 314 cover
Step V: 275 fix 493 we 651 and box 572 time 314 cover 166
Step VI: box 275 fix 493 we 651 572 time 314 cover 166 and
And Step VI is the last step of the input.
As per the rules followed in the above steps, find out the answer to each of the questions given below:
Input: to 15 is 72 not 29 an 56 end 49 before 33
1) For number arrangement- Numbers are arranged in descending order. In first step largest number is arranged in extreme left side and second largest number is arranged in extreme right side. And then in step 3rd third largest number is arranged in extreme left side and 4th largest number is arranged in extreme right side. And this process is continued in 5th step. All the number which is arranged in descending order contains number (1 to 6) at unit place of each number while they are arranged respectively.
2) For words arrangement- Words are arranged in reverse alphabetical order. In second step the word which comes last according to English dictionary arranged in extreme left end and the word which come second last according to English dictionary arranged extreme right end. And this process is continued in further step 4th and step 6th.
Input: to 15 is 72 not 29 an 56 end 49 before 33
Step I: 721 to 15 is not 29 an end 49 before 33 562
Step II: to 721 15 is 29 an end 49 before 33 562 not
Step III: 493 to 721 15 is 29 an end before 562 not 334
Step IV: is 493 to 721 15 29 an before 562 not 334 end
Step V: 295 is 493 to 721 an before 562 not 334 end 156
Step VI: before 295 is 493 to 721 562 not 334 end 156 an
