    B 2 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 3 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 4 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The phrase "with the rest expecting" is grammatically incorrect. The correct verb form should be "expected" because we are referring to the remaining amount of investment being anticipated over time.

    The verb "expected" is used to show that something is anticipated in the future, which fits the context of the sentence.

    The correct sentence should be: "Investors have committed $100 billion for immediate deployment, with the rest expected over the next four years.
