need help. got this wrong after two attempts

Answer 1

sol:-

• longest carbon should be identified in the molecule
• numbering should be done to put lowest possible number to the branched chain.
• name of alkyl group should be prefix and than the name of parent alkane.
• different alkyl group should be name in alphabatical order
• if same group present in more number than number should be sperated by commas and use di, tri etc instead of using more number.
• lowest number is given to the one which is first in alphabatical order.

all way we will get same number of parent compund as lowest chain of " 9 "
