Dictionary ordering compares words letter by letter from the left, moving to the next letter only when the earlier letters are identical.
All five words begin with the same block Comm, so the ordering is decided by the letters that follow this shared start.
Compare Commercial ('commer'), Commission ('commis') and Committee ('commit') at their sixth letter: e, i and t respectively. Since e < i < t, these three fall in the order Commercial, Commission, Committee.
The remaining two, Communication and Community, both continue as 'communi', so we compare the next letter.
Communication has 'communic' (c next) while Community has 'communit' (t next); as c < t, Communication precedes Community.
Placing all groups together gives Commercial, Commission, Committee, Communication, Community, which corresponds to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
The key idea is strict left-to-right letter comparison at the first point of difference. Hence the correct order is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
