Answer

Correct Answer: 35421

Explanation

Given data

  • Tokens: medicine / a / Neeta / given / was.

Concept/ApproachWe need a passive voice structure: Subject → Auxiliary “was” → Past participle “given” → Indirect object or direct object. The natural sentence is “Neeta was given a medicine.”

Step-by-step arrangement3 (“Neeta”) → 5 (“was”) → 4 (“given”) → 2 (“a”) → 1 (“medicine”)Sequence = 35421

Common pitfalls

  • Placing “a” before “Neeta” (creating an article before a proper noun) or misordering the auxiliary and participle.
