Which part of the following sentence contains an error ?

I am not (a) in best position (b) to advise you (c) in this matter (d).

  • A.I am not (a)
  • B.in best position (b)
  • C.in this matter (d)
  • D.to advise you (c)

Answer: B

The error is in part (b), 'in best position'.

A superlative adjective such as best normally takes the definite article. The correct sentence is: I am not in the best position to advise you in this matter.

Parts (a) 'I am not', (c) 'to advise you' and (d) 'in this matter' are all correct as written.
