Correct Answer: 3


Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence because ''was'' should be replaced by ''were''. Since the helping verb ''was'' doesn't agree with the subject ''marks'' as per subject-verb agreement because ''marks'' is a plural subject.

Therefore, the correct statement should be "Due to the snow the marks were unrecognisable."
