Answer: Select the first answer and click Restart numbering.
Step-by-step explanation:
When using Word and the numbered bullets are not sequential, this can be changed by going to the first answer, right-clicking on the numbered bullets so that it is highlighted and then selecting ''Restart numbering''.
This will ensure that the first answer will be numbered first and then the other answers will follow.
An alternative way to get to ''Restart Numbering'' would be to select the first answer then go to Format menu ⇒ Bullets and Numbering ⇒ Numbered tab ⇒ List numbering ⇒ Restart numbering.
