In the following question, the first and the last parts of the sentence/passage are numbered 1 and 6. The rest of the sentence/passage is split into four parts-P, Q, R, and S. These four parts are not given in their proper order. Read the sentence/passage and find the most logical order of the parts between 1 and 6.
Mathematics is essential in daily life.
P: Calculating discounts helps in shopping.
Q: Managing time also involves math skills.
R: From money to measurements, it is everywhere.
S: Even cooking depends on ratios and quantities.
6. So, learning math has practical value.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct order for the sentence parts is RPQS.
Step-by-Step Logic:
Opening Statement (1): "Mathematics is essential in daily life.
"General Connection (R): "From money to measurements, it is everywhere." This bridges the general opening to specific examples.
Specific Example 1 (P): "Calculating discounts helps in shopping." (Money/Shopping example).
Specific Example 2 (Q): "Managing time also involves math skills." (Measurement/Time example).
Specific Example 3 (S): "Even cooking depends on ratios and quantities." (Further example of its omnipresence).
