Question

My brother is ten years-----(old) then my cousin

Answer 1

Answer:

older.

Explanation:

My brother is ten years older than my cousin.

There are three types of degree of adjectives: positive, comparative and superlative.

Positive is the base of an adjective. e.g. Your brother is small.

Comparative is subject+ verb+ comparative degree+ than+ object

e.g. You are smarter than him.

Superlative is subject+ verb+ the+ superlative adjective+ object.

e.g. He is the smartest in the class.

So, here we are using comparative degree because we are comparing between two people.
