Place these lines for an address in the correct order.

  • A. A, B, D, C
  • B. A, C, B, D
  • C. B, A, D, C
  • D. C, B, A, D
Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct order for a standard address is as follows: the recipient's name, street address, apartment or suite number (if applicable), city, state, and ZIP code. In this case:

A) Mr. John Ryan - This is the name of the recipient and should come first.
B) 1600 Pennsylvania Ave - This line provides the street address and follows the recipient's name.
D) 2003 - This represents the apartment or suite number, which is typically placed after the street address.
C) Washington, DC - Finally, the city and state should come last.
Thus, the correct order is A, B, D, C (Mr. John Ryan, 1600 Pennsylvania Ave, 2003, Washington, DC), which follows the conventional structure of an address. Options B, C, and D do not correctly adhere to this standard format.
