Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The most appropriate phrase to replace the incorrect bold phrase in the sentence is "satisfactory number of contestants". It is to be noted that 'satisfactory' is an adjective which means 'fulfilling expectations or needs, acceptable. Though not outstanding or 'perfect' while 'satisfactorily' is an adverb. Moreover, 'number of reflects the plural nature of the noun, hence "contestant" should be replaced by "contestants". Therefore, option (a) becomes the most suitable answer choice.
