    Question

    One of the parts of the following sentence may or may not have an error. Identify the one with error, if any.
    On my way to school I found a 50-rupees note.

    A.

    On my way

    B.

    school I found

    C.

    a

    D.

    50-rupees note

    Correct option is D


    When a number + noun is used as an adjective before another noun, the noun remains singular.
    Here, “50-rupee” is a compound adjective describing note, so rupee must be singular.
    “50-rupees note” is incorrect because adjectives do not take plural forms.
    Correct sentence: On my way to school, I found a 50-rupee note.
