Correct Answer: customers find an best outfit


Solution : The error lies in the fourth option.

The error lies in the use of "an" before "best". The correct article to use before "best" is "the" because it is used before the superlative degree of the adjective. "An" is used before words that begin with a vowel sound, so "the" is the appropriate article.

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "I spend a lot of my time at work helping my customers find the best outfit."
