Choose the most appropriate option for Blank 5 in the letter.
- samples
- amount
- quantity
- number
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D - number
Questions can be counted, so the letter needs “number”: the papers carry an equal number of questions on each subject. “Amount” and “quantity” are used for things that cannot be counted, and “samples” does not fit the sense.
