Detailed Solution

Electron withdrawing group (Cl) increases acidic strength while electron donating group (CH3) decreases acidic strength.Also magnitude of inductive effect decreases drastically on increasing distance, IV is stronger acid than III. Two methyl groups (in I) gives greater +I effect than one methyl group (in II), hence I is a weaker acid than IITwo -Cl from closer position in IV exert greater -I effect than the same from larger distance in III, hence IV is stronger acid than III.
