Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The error lies in the second part of the sentence.
"Senior" is not used in this context to compare ages; it typically refers to someone who holds a higher position or rank in a group or organization. "Older" is the appropriate term for comparing ages.
So, the correct sentence should be: "Ann received the promotion instead of Susan as Ann is older than Susan in age though Susan had worked there before Ann."
