Correct Answer: tight coat of him
Solution : The right choice is the fourth option.
In the given sentence, there is a grammatical error in the phrase "tight coat of him". The phrase is not idiomatic in English. The possessive pronoun "his" is more commonly used to indicate possession or ownership.
"Tight coat" is a noun phrase describing the type of coat, and "his" indicates ownership by Dan. The preposition "to" is used to indicate the purpose or action of obtaining the coat with the help of someone.
So, the corrected sentence would be: "Dan needed help to get his tight coat."
