From the word 'CARRIAGE', how many independent words can be made without changing the order of the letter only once.

  • A.One
  • B.Two
  • C.Three
  • D.Four

Answer: B

Correct answer: Two

Keeping the letters of CARRIAGE in their order and using each only once, two independent words can be formed: CAR from the first three letters, and RAGE from the R, A, G and E that follow.

Every letter is used at most once and no letter is moved out of sequence, which are the two conditions the question imposes. Attempting a third word requires either reusing a letter or reordering, and neither is permitted.
