Read the excerpt from The Common Sense of Bicycling: Bicycling for Ladies. You may commence with the saddle a little low, but do not use it this way long enough to allow yourself to become fixed in a bad habit. Raise the saddle until high enough to cause a complete straightening out of the knee and a little dropping of the toes when the pedals are at the lowest point. Place the saddle far enough forward to get the position . . . . The peak of the saddle should be a little forward of the crank shaft. Which correctly lists the order of the first three steps in this procedure?

This question is missing the options. I've found them online. They are as follows:

[...] Which correctly lists the order of the first three steps in this procedure?

A. Slide the saddle forward, then try lowering the saddle, and then try raising the saddle higher.

B. Start with the saddle high, then try lowering the saddle, and then slide the saddle forward.

C. Start with the saddle low, then try raising the saddle higher, and then slide the saddle forward.

D. Slide the saddle forward, then try then try raising the saddle higher, and then try lowering the saddle.

The statement which correctly lists the order of the first three steps in this procedure is:

C. Start with the saddle low, then try raising the saddle higher, and then slide the saddle forward.

Explanation:

This question can be easily answered by simply paying attention to what is being described in the excerpt. Let's begin:

1. You may commence with the saddle a little low, but do not use it this way long enough to allow yourself to become fixed in a bad habit. - The first instruction is to start with the saddle low.

2. Raise the saddle until high enough to cause a complete straightening out of the knee and a little dropping of the toes when the pedals are at the lowest point. - The second instruction tells us to raise the saddle.

3. Place the saddle far enough forward to get the position . . . . The peak of the saddle should be a little forward of the crank shaft. - Finally, the last instruction tells us to slide the saddle forward.

Having that in mind, we can easily choose letter C as the best option: Start with the saddle low, then try raising the saddle higher, and then slide the saddle forward.
