Question

A) For
B) Up
C) At
D) On

Answer 1

Hint: A preposition is a word or set of words that comes before a noun, pronoun, or noun phrase to indicate direction, time, place, location, spatial relationships, or to introduce an object. Words like "in," "at," "on," "of," and "to" are examples of prepositions.

Complete answer:
The Location of something in relation to another is informed by preposition. A preposition is a word that comes before a noun or a pronoun to indicate how it relates to other words in the sentence.
The prepositions are divided into groups based on how they are used in a sentence:
- Of place
- Of time
- Of movement
When a preposition is preceded by a verb, it must be in “ing” form, which means it must be a gerund or verb in noun form.

Prepositions seem to be the English language's peacemakers at times. They tie it together with consistency and continuity. They keep the flow of a thought going. Check out these preposition games and preposition worksheets for more information on these peacemakers.

Option A) is the correct response since it implies a target (C denotes one hundred).
'Up', 'at', and 'on' aren't suitable because they apply to a higher altitude, a spot, and a place, respectively. In the Roman numerals C stands for one hundred.

Thus the correct answer is option ‘A’.

Note: The following words often come after the preposition: noun, proper noun, pronoun, noun group, and gerund. A noun is never used after a preposition.
