Since only a hand full of (A)/ people appeared for the exam (B)/, the invigilators assumed (C)/ a more relaxed attitude than (D)/ they would in a full exam hall. (E)
As the error lies in part A. Replace HAND FULL with HANDFUL. In this sentence, we need a noun to denote the very low number of examinees.

HANDFUL means quantity that fills the hand, or very less quantity.
