The correct answer is option 2 i.e. "QPSR"

  • The first and the sixth sentences are fixed and we need to arrange the rest jumbled sentences.
  • In the given first sentence, 'A summary' is defined; so after analyzing all the sentences, sentence 'Q' is expressing the uses of 'A summary' and it also continues the subject which makes it the second sentence after S-1.
  • Now we are left with only two options i.e. option 1 and option 2; making either 'P' or 'R' the third sentence after rearrangement.
  • In sentence 'P' the modern problem is explained to analyze each and every document and in the sentence 'S' it gives the solution to have a summary and it saves time.
  • Thus, from the above explanation, 'P' and 'S' become the third and fourth sentence respectively.
  • With concluding connector, ' On the whole,' 'S' becomes the fifth sentence.


Thus, the correct rearrangement will be - "S-1QPSRS-6"
