Devon is planning to write a personal narrative. He wants to include the following events in one of his paragraphs.

(1) Over the next month, Devon mowed his neighbors' lawns to save up enough money for the
video game.
(2) When he was at the mall with his parents, Devon saw a video game that he was
desperate to have.
(3) Once Devon had saved enough money, he returned triumphantly to the mall to make the
long-awaited purchase.
(4) Devon's parents told him that if he wanted it, he would have to save up the money to buy it
himself.
How should Devon organize his paragraph so that the story unfolds naturally and logically?
2.4.1,3
2,1,3,4
4, 1, 3,2
4.2.1 3

Answer:2, 4, 1, 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason you want to go in this order is because cause and effect. He would not save money for a game before he knew of the game.
