It has been established that P : Einstein was Q : although a great scientist R : weak in arithmetic S : right from his school days The Proper sequence should be:
-
SRPQ
-
QPRS
-
QPSR
-
RQPS
Correct Answer
A. QPRSExplanation
The sentence "although a great scientist" (Q) should come before the sentence "Einstein was weak in arithmetic" (R) because it provides context and introduces the contrast between Einstein's greatness as a scientist and his weakness in arithmetic. The sentence "right from his school days" (S) should come after the sentence "Einstein was weak in arithmetic" (R) because it further elaborates on the timeframe and establishes that his weakness in arithmetic was present since his school days. The sentence "It has been established that" (P) should come before all the other sentences as it sets the tone and introduces the information that follows. Therefore, the correct sequence is QPRS.Rate this question:

-
True
-
False
