Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Answer: 1, 5, 2, 4, 3 (Iron, Aluminium, Copper, Silver, Gold)

Explanation:

Arrange the metals in order of increasing value (cheapest to most expensive). The relative comparisons are:

  • Iron is the least valuable among the five.

  • Aluminium is more valuable than iron but less valuable than copper.

  • Copper is less valuable than silver but more valuable than aluminium.

  • Silver is less valuable than gold.

Putting these comparisons together gives the final sequence from cheapest to most expensive:

Iron < Aluminium < Copper < Silver < Gold
