Question

put the words in alphabetical order.
occasion ox knew constant cafeteria
submit

Explanation:

Step1: Recall alphabetical order

Alphabetical order is determined by the first letter, then the second, etc. of each word.

Step2: List first letters

The words are: occasion (o), ox (o), knew (k), constant (c), cafeteria (c).

Step3: Order by first letter

First, words starting with 'c': cafeteria, constant. Then 'k': knew. Then 'o': occasion, ox.

Step4: Verify second letters (for 'c' words)

cafeteria (a) and constant (o) – 'a' comes before 'o', so cafeteria, constant.
For 'o' words: occasion (c) and ox (x) – 'c' comes before 'x', so occasion, ox.

Answer:

cafeteria, constant, knew, occasion, ox
