Answers
"Class, please solve the questions, without discussing with one another", said the teacher.
Explanation:
- We have to find out the error in the sentence given and correct it.
- In sentence we see that the teacher is talking to the entire class. So it means that there are many students.

Answer:
We have to find a grammatical error in the sentence if any the sentence is The teacher instructed the class to answer the questions without talking to one another.
Explanation:
We must identify the fault in the given statement and fix it. We can tell that the teacher is speaking to the entire class in this statement. It follows that there are a lot of students. When talking about multiple persons working together to complete a task, the pronoun "one another" must be used. Even if there are more than two individuals present, we should still use "one another." Each other can be used if two people are engaged in a given activity. (For instance): The tutor warned Ram and Shyam not to talk to each other while working on their schoolwork. The teacher instructed the class to answer the questions without speaking to one another, which is the correct response.
