Select the most appropriate option that can substitute the highlighted segment in the given sentence.
We want to divide the expenses between the three of us.

Correct option is B

The correct substitution of the highlighted words is (b) among.
Explanation: “Between” is used when referring to two items or people. When referring to three or more, we use “among.”
Grammatical Rule Used:
· Use “between” for division involving two persons
· Use “among” for division involving three or more
Example:
Incorrect: Divide the sweets between the five children.
Correct: Divide the sweets among the five children.
Information Booster: Some style guides accept “between” for distinct, countable items even if more than two, but for people, “among” is preferred.
