The word ‘RESAT’ is given. Determine how many meaningful English words can be formed using all the letters of the word.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The given word ‘RESAT’ has 5 letters: R, E, S, A, T. The following meaningful English words can be formed using each of these 5 letters only once:

RATES (rates)

TEARS (tears)

STARE (stare)

ASTER (a type of flower)

TARES (weighing scale)

Since a total of 5 meaningful words are formed, which is "more than three," the fourth option is absolutely correct.
