    B them was too Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C much weighted to handle Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D boxes were heavy Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The grammatical error of the sentence is in option C. The structures for much too and too much are:- “Too much + noun”. For example, Too much pain, too much carelessness, too much insincerity, etc. “Much too + adjective”. For example, Much too painful, much too careless, much too wicked, etc. “Weighted” is an adjective, and the correct structure is “too much + weight”. In order to make the sentence correct, replace “weighted” with “weight”. Correct sentence: ‘The boxes were heavy, so carrying two of them was too much weight to handle.’
