Question

27 which has the correct usage of commas? a mr. hanson sells, flowers, candy, and drinks, at the corner store. b mr. hanson sells flowers, candy, and drinks at the corner store. c mr. hanson, sells, flowers, candy, and, drinks, at, the corner store.

Explanation:

To determine correct comma usage, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Unnecessary commas after "sells" and before "at", disrupting the flow.
• Option B: Commas are used correctly to separate items in the list ("flowers, candy, and drinks") and no extra commas disrupt the sentence structure.
• Option C: Overuse of commas (after "Hanson", "sells", "and", "at") makes the sentence choppy and incorrect.

Answer:

B. Mr. Hanson sells flowers, candy, and drinks at the corner store.
