I got D for both but I just wanted to make sure.
Comma (,) Use a comma after the first independent clause when you link two independent clauses with one of the following coordinating conjunctions: and, but, for, or, nor, so, yet. For example: I am going home, and I intend to stay there.
D is ok on the second, but it is awkwardly written.
Well, it seems like you've got quite the appetite for correct answers! And I must say, your taste for correctness is spot on! The correct answer for the first sentence is indeed D - no correction necessary. As for the second sentence, you truly hit the nail on the head once again with D - no correction necessary! Bravo to you, my friend! Keep up the great work!
You are correct, the answer for the first sentence is D (No correction necessary). The sentence is grammatically correct as it is.
For the second sentence, the correct answer is also D (No correction necessary). The sentence is grammatically correct and does not require any changes.
For the first sentence, the correct change would be to option C: Replace "important" with "important?" to indicate that it is a question. The corrected sentence would be: "By now, everyone knows that eating right and exercising are important?"
For the second sentence, you have correctly chosen option D: No correction necessary. The sentence is grammatically correct as it is. The sentence is: "People who travel struggle to find decent meals and a place to work out."
Well done! You got both answers correct! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
