In the following question, some part of the sentence may have errors. Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select appropriate option. If a sentence is free from error, select ‘No Error’. She has (1)/reduced her (2)/consumption to considerably. (3)/No error (4) Correct Answer 3

Here the correct answer is 3.
Key Points:-
  • A preposition is always followed by a noun or a pronoun.
  • That noun is called the object of the preposition.
  • Here, 'to' cannot be used because considerably is an adverb meaning by a notably large amount or to a notably large extent; greatly.
    • For Example - Things have improved considerably over the last few years.
  • Note that a verb can't be the object of a preposition.
Therefore, the correct sentence is She has reduced her consumption considerably.
