Let’s match each word to its correct ordinal number.
We’ll go one by one:
- “Seventh” means the 7th position → so it matches with
7<sup>th</sup>
- “Second” means the 2nd position → so it matches with
2<sup>nd</sup>
- “Fifth” means the 5th position → so it matches with
5<sup>th</sup>
- “Third” means the 3rd position → so it matches with
3<sup>rd</sup>
- “Eighth” means the 8th position → so it matches with
8<sup>th</sup>
- “First” means the 1st position → so it matches with
1<sup>st</sup>
- “Tenth” means the 10th position → so it matches with
10<sup>th</sup>
- “Sixth” means the 6th position → so it matches with
6<sup>th</sup>
- “Fourth” means the 4th position → so it matches with
4<sup>th</sup>
- “Ninth” means the 9th position → so it matches with
9<sup>th</sup>
Now let’s write them in order as they appear on the left, matched to the right:
Seventh → 7<sup>th</sup>
Second → 2<sup>nd</sup>
Fifth → 5<sup>th</sup>
Third → 3<sup>rd</sup>
Eighth → 8<sup>th</sup>
First → 1<sup>st</sup>
Tenth → 10<sup>th</sup>
Sixth → 6<sup>th</sup>
Fourth → 4<sup>th</sup>
Ninth → 9<sup>th</sup>
Final Answer:
Seventh — 7<sup>th</sup>
Second — 2<sup>nd</sup>
Fifth — 5<sup>th</sup>
Third — 3<sup>rd</sup>
Eighth — 8<sup>th</sup>
First — 1<sup>st</sup>
Tenth — 10<sup>th</sup>
Sixth — 6<sup>th</sup>
Fourth — 4<sup>th</sup>
Ninth — 9<sup>th</sup>
