Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.
The ______ for this distance will be ninety cents.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The most appropriate option to fill in the blank is fare.
The word fare means the price paid for transportation. In this case, the sentence is saying that the fare for this distance will be ninety cents. This means that the price of the ticket to travel this distance will be ninety cents.
The other options are not correct.
- Flair means a distinctive style or manner. It cannot be used in this sentence because it does not describe the price of transportation.
- Flower means a plant with petals and a stem. It cannot be used in this sentence because it does not describe the price of transportation.
- Fair means just or equitable. It can be used in this sentence, but it would mean that the price of the ticket is reasonable.
