    Question

    In the following questions, one part of the sentence may

    have an error. Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select the appropriate option. If a sentence is free from error, select 'No Error'.
    A Firms with strong managerial processes Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B do significantly better on high-level Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C metrics such as profitability, Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D growth, and productive. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No Error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The error is in part d) of the given sentence. Use of word 'productive' (which is an adjective) is inappropriate in the sentence. Since, 'profitability' and 'growth' both are nouns (metrics), 'productive' must also be replaced by the noun 'productivity', to maintain the parallel structure of the sentence. Hence, option d) is the answer.
