Options 1 and 2 are incorrect as they change the meaning of what is mentioned. Option 3 is incorrect as with 'less' we use the adjective in positive form and not comparative form. The correct word here should be 'brave.' Option 4 is thus the correct answer.

She is brave. Her brother is more brave.Select the most suitable sente...
Explanation:
The most suitable sentence with respect to grammar and usage is option D: "She is less brave than her brother."
Reasons:
- Option A: "Her brother is brave and she is equally brave."
This sentence implies that both the girl and her brother have the same level of bravery. However, the prompt states that the brother is "more brave," which contradicts this statement. Therefore, option A is not correct.
- Option B: "She is brave but her brother is the bravest of all."
This sentence correctly conveys that the girl is brave, but her brother is the bravest among all people. However, the prompt only states that the brother is "more brave," not the "bravest of all." Therefore, option B is not the most suitable choice.
- Option C: "She is less braver than her brother."
This sentence contains a grammatical error. The word "braver" is already the comparative form of the adjective "brave," so it does not need the additional "less" before it. Therefore, option C is not correct.
- Option D: "She is less brave than her brother."
This sentence correctly compares the bravery of the girl and her brother, stating that the girl is not as brave as her brother. It uses the correct comparative form of the adjective "brave" and accurately reflects the information given in the prompt. Therefore, option D is the most suitable sentence with respect to grammar and usage.
In conclusion, option D is the most suitable sentence because it accurately compares the bravery of the girl and her brother using the correct comparative form of the adjective.
