1, 2, 4 are correct. 3 is wrong because it has 4 int values, max can take only two arguments i.e., two int or float values.

However in the 4th option, the arguments of type double and float, My doubt is how can we compare double with float?

Please suggest?

Thanks.

Then what about 3?

Number 3 is also a integer data type so this is also correct one.
