Answer 2

Gold is costlier than any other metal.

• Degrees of comparison are of three types based on the form of the adjective.
• They are positive degree, comparative degree ans superlative degree.
• When the adjective is in its simplest form, it os called Positive degree.
• Examples: beautiful, smart, tall, good, bad, intelligent, etc
• We use comparative degree in places where two persons or things of same class are compared together.
• Examples: more beautiful, smarter, taller, better, worse, more intelligent, etc.
• More than two persons or things of same class are compared in superlative degree.
• Examples: most beautiful, smartest, tallest, best, worst, most intelligent, etc.
• Here, the given sentence is in positive degree of comparison.
• It has to be changed into comparative degree.
• We have to compare gold with other metals.
• Here, costly is the adjective.
• It have to be changed into costlier.
• Hence, we can change it as Gold is costlier than any other metal.
