A

D<C<B<AD < C < B < A

B

C<D<A<BC < D < A < B

C

A<C<D<BA < C < D < B

D

B<D<C<AB < D < C < A

Answer

A<C<D<BA < C < D < B

Explanation

Solution

The order of increasing stability of carbocations is

Carbocation [A][A] is least stable and converts to more stable 3?3? carbocation through rearrangement.
