Question

Choose one word which can be formed from the letters of the word given MEASUREMENT.
(a) MASTER
(b) MANTLE
(c) SUMMIT
(d) ASSURE

Answer 1

Hint: To solve this question we will separately consider all options and see which option of the given have a letter which is not present in the word MEASUREMENT. Smoothly and slowly processing we will get a word that has all words matching from word MEASUREMENT.

Complete step-by-step solution:
We are given the word as MEASUREMENT.
Consider option (a) MASTER.
MASTER has letters as M, A, S T, E, and R. Matching from the word MEASUREMENT, we see that all M, A, S, T, E, R is present in MEASUREMENT. So the word MASTER can be formed from letters of the word MEASUREMENT.
Consider option (b) MANTLE.
MANTLE has letters is M, A, N, T, L, E.
Matching from MEASUREMENT we see that ‘L’ is present in MANTLE but is not present in MEASUREMENT.
So, option (b) is wrong.
Consider option (c) SUMMIT.
SUMMIT has letters as S, U, M, M, I, T.
Matching from the word MEASUREMENT we see that SUMMIT has the letter I while MEASUREMENT doesn’t.
So, option (c) is wrong.
Consider option (d) ASSURE.
ASSURE has a letter as A, S, S, U, R, E.
Matching from the word MEASUREMENT we see that ASSURE has two ‘S’ while MEASUREMENT only has one ‘S’.
So, option (d) is wrong.
So, correct option is (a) MASTER.

Note: Another way to solve this question can be counting the number of letters in word MEASUREMENT and then counting it in options as well to check which one matches.
Measurement has
M – 2
E – 3
A – 1
S – 1
U – 1
R – 1
N – 1
T – 1
