A word and number arrangement machine when given an input line of words and numbers rearranges them following a particular rule in each step. The following is an illustration of input and rearrangement.
Input: horse long 18 42 equal father 17 24 dream 13 27 never
Step I: dream horse long 18 42 equal father 17 24 27 never 413
Step II: equal dream horse long 18 42 father 24 27 never 413 817
Step III: father equal dream horse long 42 24 27 never 413 817 918
Step IV: horse father equal dream long 42 27 never 413 817 918 624
Step V: long horse father equal dream 42 never 413 817 918 624 927
Step VI: never long horse father equal dream 413 817 918 624 927 642
Step VI is the last step of the above input, as the desired arrangement is obtained.

Answers and Explanations
1. Answer - Option C
Explanation [1-5]-
In each step one word and one number is arranged. Words are arranged according to the alphabetical order from lowest to highest at the left end. Numbers are arranged smallest to highest number at the right end and sum of the digits of that particular number placed before that i.e. smallest number is 11 so its sum is 1+1=2 so final number is 211 and arrange at the right end.
Input: moment 21 32 victory basic 15 equation 26 rough 11 point 12
Step I: basic moment 21 32 victory 15 equation 26 rough point 12 211
Step II: equation basic moment 21 32 victory 15 26 rough point 211 312
Step III: moment equation basic 21 32 victory 26 rough point 211 312 615
Step IV: point moment equation basic 32 victory 26 rough 211 312 615 321
Step V: rough point moment equation basic 32 victory 211 312 615 321 826
Step VI: victory rough point moment equation basic 211 312 615 321 826 532
