Study the chart of prefixes.

\begin{tabular}{|c|c|}
\hline Word Part & Definition \\
\hline ante- & in front of, before \\
\hline hyper- & over, above \\
\hline intra- & within \\
\hline mega- & great, huge \\
\hline pro- & \begin{tabular}{l}
forward, before, \\
in support of
\end{tabular} \\
\hline ultra- & \begin{tabular}{l}
beyond in degree, \\
extreme
\end{tabular} \\
\hline
\end{tabular}

To determine which prefixes would most likely be used in words involving something exaggerated, we can analyze the definitions of each prefix provided:

1. ante-: in front of, before
2. hyper-: over, above
3. intra-: within
4. mega-: great, huge
5. pro-: forward, before, in support of
6. ultra-: beyond in degree, extreme

We need to select the prefixes that imply something exaggerated, or beyond the normal degree.

- hyper-: This prefix means "over, above", suggesting something excessive or beyond what is normal.
- mega-: This prefix means "great, huge", indicating something larger or more intense than usual.
- ultra-: This prefix means "beyond in degree, extreme", clearly indicating an exaggerated nature.

Thus, the prefixes that would most likely be used in words involving something exaggerated are:
- hyper-
- mega-
- ultra-

These correspond to the positions 2, 4, and 6 in the provided chart. Therefore, the three options are:

1. hyper-
2. mega-
3. ultra-

The result is [tex]\((2, 4, 6)\)[/tex].
