The correct order is option d. My brother hardly ever chats with friends.

We need to use this format:

Subject + hardly ever + main verb

Let us analyse the options:

a. My brother chats hardly ever with friends- This sentence is incorrect because the main verb (chats) needs to come after ‘hardly ever’

b. My brother hardly ever chat with friends- This sentence is not the right answer because it is grammatically incorrect. The subject (my brother) does not agree with the verb (chat). The right word here would have been ‘chats’.

c. My brother chats with friends hardly ever-  This option is not the correct answer since it is a grammatically incorrect sentence. ‘Hardly ever’ has been pushed to the end of the sentence.

d. My brother hardly ever chats with friends- This is the correct answer because there are no subject-verb errors or sentence structure errors. The sentence follows the right format.
