Solution

The correct option is A sedimentation, filtration and evaporation
  1. Sedimentation is used to remove sand from water as sand particles settle down easily.
  2. Filtration is used to remove sawdust from water as the sawdust can be captured by the filter paper.
  3. Evaporation can be used to separate salt from water as the water evaporates and salt is left behind.
