Parts of the following sentence are given as options. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.
Mr. Bansal is the more methodical person in our office staff.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. the more.
- The correct comparative form should be "the most" because the sentence is comparing Mr. Bansal to all other members of the office staff, which requires the superlative form rather than the comparative form.
Therefore, the corrected sentence will be "Mr. Bansal is the most methodical person in our office staff."
