c. Presently he reports he is pain free and denies any tingling or numbness in the right lower extremity.
ANSWER:
'c'
definately not 'b'
the use of the word 'they' in 'a' is wrong.
Right.
To determine the sentence that does not have an agreement error, you need to analyze the subject and the pronouns used in each option.
a. "Presently he reports he is pain free and they deny any tingling or numbness in the right lower extremity."
In this sentence, there is an agreement error with the pronoun "they" because it does not match the singular subject "he."
b. "Presently he reports he is pain free and denies any tingling or numbness in her right lower extremity."
In this sentence, there is an agreement error with the possessive pronoun "her" because it does not match the subject "he."
c. "Presently he reports he is pain free and denies any tingling or numbness in the right lower extremity."
This sentence does not have an agreement error. The subject "he" matches with the pronouns used.
Therefore, the correct answer is option c.
