The third method is neither overloaded nor overridden. It is just another method which can be safely defined in that class without causing compile time/runtime error.

Sheri,

3 is correct bcoz....???
No Not bcoz of overriding or overloading..... it is just a different method with different name.
U can add any variable declaration, methods, any initializers, any constructor etc at //.
1. int method(int i) // Same method signature as the Base
2. public void method(String a) // Correct
3. public void anothermethod(int i) // Correct
4. void abstract othermethod(int i) // Wrong
5. void method(int i) // Same signature

But from the answers given the best choices are 2 & 3.
Hope this helps,
Aruna

since sub (class) is inheriting from base (class), base can have its own additional features (variables/methods) than the base (class). here anothermethod() is a new feature added to sub (class) and hence 2,3 are correct answers.
hope its clear.
