Correct Answer: not clever enough to make


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

Explanation : In the given sentence, "no clever" is an incorrect phrase. The word "no" would be replaced with "not" to form a negative statement. "No" is used to indicate absence, while "not" is used to negate a verb or adjective.

The word order is adjusted to follow the structure: "Adjective + enough + infinitive." In this case, the adjective "clever" is followed by "enough" and then the infinitive verb phrase "to make sound business decisions".

Therefore, the correct sentence is: "He is not clever enough to make sound business decisions."
