Show Answer
S3. Ans.(b)
Sol. ‘Not only…..but also’ is a conjunction pair which needs to be placed appropriately in the sentence. In the given sentence, the subsequent part ‘but also’ has been used just before the preposition ‘with’ and it should be applied also to the precedent part ‘not only’. Hence ‘not only’ will be used just before the preposition ‘by’.
