Malia Morrison · Answer 1

Answer: A. Gaylord S. Gillis, II

Explanation:

Alphabetical filing is a process of arranging alphabets in their order of occurrence in the list of alphabets.

It has certain rules / guildlines.

One of the rules is

that alphabets are to be considered separately.

Initials are considered as a separate unit.

Spaces are not considered.

Following this guidelines the first option is to be considered because I comes before J in the alphabetical table.
