Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → C only
A. Nobody has no idea who invented the circle — Incorrect.
- "Nobody" and "no" together make a double negative, which reverses the meaning.
- Correct form: Nobody has any idea who invented the circle
B. Nobody has a idea who invented the circle — Incorrect.
- "Idea" begins with a vowel sound, so it takes "an", not "a".
C. Nobody has an idea who invented the circle — Correct.
- The singular subject "nobody" takes "has", and "an idea" uses the right article.
D. Nobody have the idea who invented the circle — Incorrect.
- "Nobody" is singular and needs "has", not "have".
Tip: In this question the options do not follow the order of the statements (Option 1 = D only, Option 2 = A only, Option 3 = B only, Option 4 = C only). NTA often jumbles the options in this way, so after finding the correct statement, read the options carefully and mark the one with the right letter.
