Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is: Neither keys open the door.

Explanation:

As we know,

Either,or is used when we talk about plural(more than one) object(s), with an option for use.

E.g: You can either purchase the MacBook, or the Simple Lenovo.

Either of the boys are good at football.

Similarly,

Niether is used only between two objects for which both are unusable.

E.g: Neither of the keys open the door.

Niether the short one, nor the bigger key opens the door.
