Trisha Vashisht answered |
Explanation:
- Given Word: i - mi - ent
- Options: m, a, n
- Starting with the first blank, we have "i".
- Adding "m" to the blank, we get "mi".
- Now, we need to choose between "m" and "n" for the second blank.
- If we choose "m", we get "mim". This is not a meaningful word.
- If we choose "n", we get "min". This is also not a meaningful word.
- So, the correct option to fill the second blank is "m".
- Finally, the word becomes "miment", which is a meaningful word.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B: m, n.
