Answer

Explanation:

Preposition Usage:
- The correct preposition to use in this sentence is 'in' because we are talking about a specific duration of time.
- When referring to a period of time, we use the preposition 'in' to indicate the amount of time it will take for something to happen or for someone to be somewhere.

Time Duration:
- In this sentence, the speaker is referring to the amount of time it will take for their friends to arrive, which is 'two or three hours.'
- Therefore, we use the preposition 'in' to specify the time frame within which their friends will be present.

Correct Answer:
- The correct preposition to complete the sentence is 'in.' The sentence should read: 'My friends will be there in two or three hours.'
