Direction: Study the following information carefully and answer the q...
Logic: In the first step the highest number is in the first position and in the next step the lowest number at the next position from left to right.
Input: 765 45 758 21 89 36 465 11
Step I: 765 11 45 758 21 89 36 465
Step II: 765 11 758 45 21 89 36 465
Step III: 765 11 758 21 45 89 36 465
Step IV: 765 11 758 21 465 45 89 36
Step V: 765 11 758 21 465 36 45 89
Step VI: 765 11 758 21 465 36 89 45
Step VI is the last step of the given input.
Thus, Six steps are needed to complete this arrangement.
Hence, the correct option is (E).

Understanding the Arrangement Process
The number arrangement machine operates by rearranging numbers based on specific rules. In the previous example, the highest number is moved to the front in each step, while the remaining numbers are sorted in ascending order.
Input Breakdown
For the new input:
765, 45, 758, 21, 89, 36, 465, 11
Step-by-Step Analysis
1. Identify the highest number:
The highest number is 758.
2. First Step:
Move 758 to the front.
New arrangement: 758, 765, 45, 21, 89, 36, 465, 11
3. Second Step:
The next highest number is 765.
New arrangement: 758, 765, 45, 21, 89, 36, 465, 11 (remains the same as the previous step since it’s already in position).
4. Third Step:
The next highest number is 465.
New arrangement: 758, 765, 465, 45, 21, 89, 36, 11
5. Fourth Step:
The next highest number is 89.
New arrangement: 758, 765, 465, 89, 45, 21, 36, 11
6. Fifth Step:
The next highest number is 36.
New arrangement: 758, 765, 465, 89, 45, 36, 21, 11
7. Sixth Step:
The last highest number is 21.
Final arrangement: 758, 765, 465, 89, 45, 36, 21, 11
Conclusion
The process continues until all numbers are arranged. In total, six steps are required to complete the arrangement, confirming that the correct answer is option 'E'.
