Compare words letter by letter from left to right; the first word to show a different letter at the same position is determined by the alphabetical order of that letter.
Compare words letter by letter from left to right; the first word to show a different letter at the same position is determined by the alphabetical order of that letter.
Analyze Common Prefixes
All four words (DRAW, DRAIN, DRAGON, DRAMA) start with the same three letters 'DRA'. We move to the 4th letter for each word.
Evaluate 4th Letters
The 4th letters are: W (DRAW), I (DRAIN), G (DRAGON), M (DRAMA). Comparing these alphabetically: G comes before I, M, and W.
Identify Dictionary Order
Since G is the 7th letter of the alphabet, I is 9th, M is 13th, and W is 23rd, DRAGON is the first word in the dictionary.
B: DRAIN (I comes after G), C: DRAMA (M comes after G), D: DRAW (W comes after G).
A is correct because when comparing the 4th letter of each word (W, I, G, M), G is the earliest in alphabetical order, making DRAGON the first word.
When ordering words, always ignore the shared prefix and focus only on the first index where the words differ to save time.
