Select the segment of the sentence that contains the grammatical error. If there is no error, mark 'No error' as your answer.

The correct answer is Option 1) i.e A.

 If different prepositions are needed with different adjectives, suitable prepositions must be used with each of them.

• For example:
  • ​Sharman is junior and less experienced than him.
  • ​Sharman is junior to and less experienced than him.
• ​​Hence according to the given rule and example, 'to' will be used before the conjunction 'and' in the 2nd part.

Let's look at an important rule regarding the usage of prepositions with some adjectives:

• The following adjectives are always followed by 'to' and not 'than'.
• ​Junior, senior, superior, inferior, prior, anterior, posterior.

Correct sentence- "David is superior to and richer than most of his friends in his village."
