Answers
Answer:
the answer is a] can't be able to
The correct option is C) couldn't.
I asked my friends to help me move because I knew that I couldn't fit all my possessions into my little car.
The verb "knew" is in the past tense, and it indicates that the speaker had this knowledge in the past. Therefore, the verb that follows should also be in the past tense to maintain grammatical consistency.
Option A) "can't be able to" is grammatically incorrect because "can't" and "be able to" have similar meanings and cannot be used together.
Option B) "don't be able to" is also incorrect because it uses the present tense "don't" instead of the past tense "knew".
Option D) "couldn't be able to" is incorrect because "couldn't" already expresses the idea of inability, so adding "be able to" is redundant.
Option C) "couldn't" is the correct choice because it is the past tense form of "can't" and indicates that the speaker was not able to fit all of their possessions into their car.
