Answer:
The answer is 4
Explanation:
The numbering near the compound indicates the points where the carboxyl group could be attached.
If you’re wondering why I numbered 1 twice, here is a tiny explanation-
imagine, if u gave a chloro group on any one of the 2 methyl groups ( that I numbered 1 ), the naming would still remain the same, ie; 2- chloromethylbutane.
I hope u got my point.
