Fill Blanks

Question:

Fill in the blanks with the most appropriate option:-

Govind aksed me how much I spent ……. the shoes.

Options:

for

on

of

to

Correct Answer:

on

Explanation:

The correct option to fill in the blank is on.

The word "on" is used to indicate the purpose of spending money. In this case, Govind is asking how much you spent on the shoes.

The other options are not as appropriate:

  • For can also be used to indicate the purpose of spending money, but it is more general. It would not be as accurate to use "for" in this context, as Govind is specifically asking about the shoes.
  • Of is used to indicate possession or part of something. It would not be accurate to use "of" in this context, as Govind is not asking about a part of the shoes.
  • To is used to indicate movement towards something. It would not be accurate to use "to" in this context, as Govind is not asking about a destination.
