Question : Directions: In the following question, some parts of the sentence have errors, and some are correct. Find out which part of the sentence has an error. The number of that part is the answer. If a sentence is error-free, your answer is "No Error."
In that wholesale shop (1) / they do not sell (2) / fewer than ten bags of rice. (3) / No Error (4)
Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (4)
Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.
There is no error in the sentence as "fewer" is used for countable nouns. Though rice is an uncountable noun, "fewer" should be used in this case as bags of rice are countable.
Therefore, the sentence is "In that wholesale shop they do not sell fewer than ten bags of rice".
