• C. SRPQ
• D. RQPS

Hint:

When rearranging sentences, start with the subject and action, then describe the effects, followed by the time frame or additional details.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Let's analyze the sentence fragments:
1. Start with the main subject and action: - "Automation in manufacturing processes has" (R) is the main subject and action, so it naturally starts the sentence.
2. Describe the effects of the action: - "Not only improved productivity" (P) follows, indicating one of the effects of automation.
3. Mention the additional effect: - "But also reduced the margin of human error" (Q) adds another effect of automation, following the previous one.
4. Give the time frame: - "Over the past few decades" (S) provides the time frame during which these changes have occurred, making it a fitting conclusion.
Thus, the correct sequence is: R, P, S, Q.
