Question
Given below is a sentence with an error. The error is in
one part of the sentence. Below the sentence are given the options containing the parts of the sentence. Choose the option which contains the error. The seminar on financial literacy / aims to educate young adults / on how to manage their savings / and invest wisely in volatile markets.Solution
The phrase "on how to manage" is grammatically redundant because both "on" and "how" imply explanation. The correct structure should be either “aims to educate...on managing” or “aims to educate...how to manage” — but not “on how to manage.”
Correct sentence:“The seminar on financial literacy aims to educate young adults how to manage their savings and invest wisely in volatile markets.”
