An electronic device when fed with the numbers, rearranges them in a particular order following certain rules. The following is a step-by-step process of rearrangement for the given input of numbers.
Input :- 85   16   36   04   19   97   63   09
Step I :- 97   85   16   36   04   19   63   09
Step II :- 97   85   63   16   36   04   19   09
Step III :- 97   85   63   36   16   04   19   09
Step IV :- 97   85   63   36   19   16   04   09
Step V :- 97   85   63   36   19   16   09   04

 (for the given input step V is the last step).

Which of the following will be Step III for the given input ?
Input
:- 09   25   16   30   32   19   17   06

Option:
A. 32 09 25 16 30 19 17 06
B. 32 30 09 25 16 19 17 06
C. 32 30 25 09 16 19 17 06
D. 35 25 09 16 30 19 17 06
E. None of these
Answer: C . 32 30 25 09 16 19 17 06

Justification:

Clearly, in the given arrangement, the numbers have been arranged in descending order in a sequence, altering the position of only one number in each step

Input :- 09   25   16   30   32   19   17   06
Step I :- 32   09   25   16   30   19   17   06
Step II :- 32   30   09   25   16   19   17   06
Step III :- 32   30   25   09   16   19   17   06
