Question
The company announced that it will be launching a new
series of eco-friendly products, which aimed to reduce plastic waste by 50%. In the given question a phrase of the sentence is printed in bold which needs to be improved. Among the given options choose the option that can improve the given phrase and make it grammatically and contextually meaningful. If no improvement is required and the sentence is correct in its original form, then mark option 5 i.e., 'no  improvement required' as the answer.Solution
The correct phrase is "which aim to reduce plastic waste" because the relative pronoun "which" refers to the "new series of eco-friendly products" and needs to be followed by the base form of the verb aim. Similarly, "aim to" is the correct expression for indicating the goal or intention to achieve something. The sentence should be in the present tense to match the future action announced by the company, so the correct form is "aim to reduce" rather than "aim for reducing" or other variations. hence, the correct sentence will be- The company announced that it will be launching a new series of eco-friendly products, which aim to reduce plastic waste by 50%.
