Question

correct any errors in capitalization or punctuation. your answer should be a single sentence. economist bernard m. baruch noted \the art of living lies less in eliminating our troubles than in growing with them\. economist bernard m. baruch noted \the art of living lies less in eliminating our troubles than in growing with them\.

Explanation:

1. The quote should start with a capital letter, so "the" in the quote becomes "The".
2. The punctuation at the end of the quote: when a quote is a complete sentence and is part of a larger sentence, the period should be inside the quotation marks. Also, the extra period at the end of the inputted text (after the quote) is incorrect and should be removed. So the correct sentence is: Economist Bernard M. Baruch noted, "The art of living lies less in eliminating our troubles than in growing with them." (Note: Also, a comma after "noted" is appropriate for introducing a direct quote, though the main errors here are capitalization of the quote's first word and punctuation placement of the period.)

Answer:

Economist Bernard M. Baruch noted, "The art of living lies less in eliminating our troubles than in growing with them."
