Correct Answer: the same aisle as


Solution : The second option is the correct choice.

The word aisles should be singular in this case, as one is referring to a specific aisle where both coffee and tea are located. Using same aisles suggests multiple aisles, which is not consistent with the context of the sentence. The corrected version uses the same aisle as to indicate that both coffee and tea are found in a single aisle at the grocery store.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: At the grocery store, coffee is in the same aisle as tea.
