The both children go to the same school.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. The both.

  1. The error lies in part 1 of the statement because of the wrong use of "Article".
  2. We need to replace "The both" with "Both the" for making the statement grammatically correct.

Grammatical Concept:- 

  • In the case of "Both" article "the" is used before it.
  • The chosen option contains the ERROR hence, it will be the correct answer.

The correct sentence will be- 

Both the children go to the same school.
