Question

the principal disposed _____ the application in no time​

Answer 1

Answer:

Disposed to the.........

Answer 2

Answer:

disposed of

Explanation:

• Being a phrasal verb or two-word verb (or multi-word verb), the word 'dispose' always fits well with 'of'.

• It is important to know and understand the meaning of 'dispose'. That will prove of much help in the matter we are using it.

• Breaking the construction to "dis+pose+of " denotes it as 'getting rid of unwanted things (or not necessary things)'.

• The second one is a preposition (i.e. of) and this is responsible for altering the meaning of the verb.

Hence the correct sentence will be:

The principal disposed of the application in no time.

[The above question appears to be incomplete. Probably the complete question was:

The principal disposed     the application in no time.

fill in the blanks with the correct preposition- of or off.]
