Solutions (11-15):
Sol. Students let us understand the Logic behind this Question and let’s understand how to solve it. When we see the each step, then we can find that
The machine rearranges one word and one number in each step simultaneously, words are arranged from right end and numbers are arranged from left end.

(i) In this, words are arranged according to alphabet series from right. In step 1, the smallest word according to alphabetical series goes to the right end and in step 2 the second smallest word goes to the right end. The word which arranged in 1st step will shift one place left in second step and so on until the final step.

(ii) Numbers are arranged in increasing order, In step 1 the largest number goes to the left end and in step 2 the second largest number goes to the left end. The number which arranged in 1st shift will shift one place right in second step and so on until the final step.
