Four students are looking at a map of India with scale of 1 cm = 100 km. Student 1: Let's draw a large scale map our colony now. Student 2: Why do you feel we need a large paper to draw our colony? A small one is enough. Student 3: Large scale does not mean large paper. We need to change the scale. Let's make it 1 cm = 500 km. Student 4: No no, since we only need to draw our colony, a centimeter can show much less distance. Arrange the four students in increasing order of the conceptual clarity (i.e. from least clear to most clear)
