Correct Answer - Option 4 : VI

Given Input: but going for crept te light sir

First, we arrange the words with a maximum number of letters in decreasing order and also in alphabetical order. One word at a time.

Step-I: crept but going for te light sir

Crept has a number of letters 5 and come first place in alphabetical order.

Step-II: crept going but for te light sir

After creptgoing has also a number of letters 5 and come second place in alphabetical order.

Step-III: crept going light but for te sir

After goinglight has also a number of letters 5 and come third place in alphabetical order.

Step-IV: crept going light but for sir te

After lightbut for are already arranged with a number of letters 3 so skip those two words then come to the word sir.

Step-IV is the last step for this input.

Similarly we can write all the steps of the given input as,

Input - more fight cats cough sough acts idea

Step I - cough more fight cats sough acts idea

Step II - cough fight more cats sough acts idea

Step III - cough fight sough more cats acts idea

Step IV - cough fight sough acts more cats idea

Step V - cough fight sough acts cats more idea

Step VI - cough fight sough acts cats idea more 

Step VI is the last step of the given input.

Hence, "option 4" is the correct answer.
