Question

Find grammatical mistakes in the given sentence and correct the sentence.

No less than fifty men were injured in the accident.

Answer 1

I don't see any mistakes 8o)

Answer 2

Seems good to me. :S

Answer 3

The word fifty should be written as 50. Only numbers under 10 need to be written out in word-form.

Answer 4

^ it can be written out. my teachers don't take off points for spelling it out. its better to spell it out anyways. @sara-ali Looks good.

Answer 5

It's not always "better" to write out a number. My college instructors DO mark points off for spelling out numbers over 10.

Answer 6

Over 50/fifty men were injured in the accident. (??)

Answer 7

yeah, it is always good to spell numbers out if they are one word long.

What @tanvidais13 says, seems one possible answer to this hmm..

Answer 8

If you think the fifty is ok, then maybe the problem is the passive voice (were injured).

Answer 9

Well the passive voice seems good as well to me. Hmm..

Answer 10

"then" should be "than"

Answer 11

It IS "than." Where do you see "then"?

Answer 12

The way the question is written tells me there IS a mistake. Maybe sara-ali can come back and give us more information as to what she is looking for...?

Answer 13

like i said, i still think it's "Over 50/fifty men were injured in the accident."
