Which sequence lists the friends in the correct order described as SBMPD?

• A. SBMPD
• B. SBPMD
• C. SBMDPS
• D. SBMSPD

Answer: (A)

Exact order matters. The description specifies the friends in this precise sequence: S, then B, then M, then P, then D. Only the sequence that matches this exactly is SBMPD, with S first, B second, M third, P fourth, and D fifth. The other options don’t fit because they change the order in one way or another: SBPMD swaps M and P, so it doesn’t follow the described order; SBMDPS is longer and rearranges letters, not matching the five-letter pattern; SBMSPD shifts letters and adds an extra S, breaking the required sequence.
