Parts of the following sentence have been given as options. Select the option that contains an error.
Rahul thinks he is as smarter as his friends in the class.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. he is as smarter as.
"Smarter" is the comparative degree of the adjective "smart" and is used when we want to compare two things or people in terms of intelligence.
Here, Rahul isn't being compared to someone directly. Thus, using "smarter" is incorrect.
Thus, the correct sentence is - Rahul thinks he is as smart as his friends in the class.
