Answer : 2. "Rajan has"
Explanation :
The correct sentence is:
Rajan has three brothers and three sisters.
Explanation: The verb "has" is the correct form to use with the pronoun "Rajan." The original sentence, "Rajan is having," is not grammatically incorrect but sounds less natural in this context. Using "has" makes the sentence sound more standard and common in English.

Answer : 3. "not only cold but also"
Explanation :
The correct sentence is:
The place was not only cold but also damp.
Explanation: In this sentence, the use of "only" and "also" is redundant. Instead, "not only...but also" is the correct correlative conjunction to use. Also, the conjunction "and" should be replaced with "but" for proper contrast between the coldness and dampness of the place.
