Let’s solve this step by step.
We are given a set of steps for brushing teeth, but they’re mixed up. We need to put them in the correct order — from first to last — based on how you actually brush your teeth.
Here are the 6 steps we have (from the image):
1. Brush your teeth well and rinse out your mouth.
2. Gently squeeze the toothpaste onto the toothbrush.
3. Slowly turn on the tap.
4. Get your toothbrush.
5. Carefully wet your toothbrush.
6. Slowly turn off the tap.
Now let’s think about what you do FIRST when brushing your teeth:
✔ Step 1: You need to get your toothbrush before you can do anything else → “Get your toothbrush.”
✔ Step 2: Then you turn on the water so you can wet the brush → “Slowly turn on the tap.”
✔ Step 3: Now you wet the toothbrush under the running water → “Carefully wet your toothbrush.”
✔ Step 4: After wetting it, you add toothpaste → “Gently squeeze the toothpaste onto the toothbrush.”
✔ Step 5: Now you brush your teeth and then rinse your mouth → “Brush your teeth well and rinse out your mouth.”
✔ Step 6: Finally, you turn off the water → “Slowly turn off the tap.”
So the correct order is:
1. Get your toothbrush.
2. Slowly turn on the tap.
3. Carefully wet your toothbrush.
4. Gently squeeze the toothpaste onto the toothbrush.
5. Brush your teeth well and rinse out your mouth.
6. Slowly turn off the tap.
This matches exactly with the “Answer Key” shown on the right side of the image — which confirms our logic is correct.
Final Answer:
1. Get your toothbrush.
2. Slowly turn on the tap.
3. Carefully wet your toothbrush.
4. Gently squeeze the toothpaste onto the toothbrush.
5. Brush your teeth well and rinse out your mouth.
6. Slowly turn off the tap.
