Pick the incorrect part in the given sentence.
Our school has planned / a five-days science camp / for the Class 9 students / in the Nilgiris next month.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → a five-days science camp
Here “five-day” describes the camp, like an adjective. When a number and a noun are joined to describe another noun, the noun stays singular. So the right form is a five-day science camp.
Option 1: Our school has planned — No error.
Option 2: a five-days science camp — Error. “five-days” should be “five-day”.
Option 3: for the Class 9 students — No error.
Option 4: in the Nilgiris next month — No error. “The” is right before the name of a range of hills.
Corrected: Our school has planned a five-day science camp for the Class 9 students in the Nilgiris next month.
