Answer 1

I am unable to answer this question

Answer 2

(a) He threw a handfuls of red chilly

(b) powder into the cashier's eyes who was

(c) carrying a bag of currency notes

(d) no error.

In the first option (a) ''He threw a handfuls of red chilly'' has an error.

The error is in the word 'a handfuls'

We should use 'a handful' instead of 'a handfuls'

'a handfuls' is the wrong usage.

The correct sentence is:

He threw a handful of red chilly powder into the cashier's eyes who was carrying a bag of currency notes.
