Question

Distribute these mangoes between all five boys. Correct this sentence

Answer 1

Answer:

Distribute these mangoes among them

Answer 2

"Distribute these mangoes among all five boys."

• The correct preposition to use with "distribute" when referring to the division of something among multiple people is "among" and not "between".
• The preposition "between" refers to the division of something among two people or entities, whereas the preposition "among" refers to the division of something among three or more people or entities.
• In this case, since there are five boys, "among" is the correct preposition to use, making the correct sentence: "Distribute these mangoes among all five boys."
• The verb "distribute" means dividing something into parts or portions and giving them to individuals or groups.
• When using "distribute" in a sentence, the following preposition depends on the number of people or entities receiving the divided items.
