Answer 2

The team that was nominated for (no article) 5 prizes this year has also been nominated for the grand prize.

Explanation:

• An article is considered to be an adjective. Similar to adjectives, these articles modify the given nouns. The articles are ‘a / an / the’.

• ‘A / an’ are indefinite articles. ‘The’ is definite article. ‘A /an’ is utilized for referring a non-particular or non-specific members of the group.  

• The definite type article ‘The’ has been utilized before the plural or singular type nouns where the provided noun is particular.  

• In this example, it is appropriate to use no article in first blank and in second blank the ‘grand prize’ is specific. So ‘the’ is used.
