Select the word segment that substitutes (replaces) the bracketed word segment correctly and completes the sentence meaningfully.
The percentage of employees who called in sick and the number of employees who left their jobs within 2 years (were reflective of the level of job satisfaction).

Correct option is B

The correct substitution of the highlighted words is (b) are reflective of the level of job satisfaction.
Explanation:
· The subject here is " The percentage of employees who called in sick and the number of employees who left their jobs within 2 years".
· These are two distinct plural subjects joined by " and", thus making a plural subject.
· Hence, a plural verb ("are") is required, not singular verbs like "is" or "has".
· " Reflective" is always followed by the preposition " of", not " on".
· Therefore, " are reflective of" is the correct and grammatically appropriate replacement.
Grammatical rule used:
· When two different subjects are joined by " and", the verb must be plural.
· Reflective is a descriptive adjective and must be followed by " of" to indicate what it is reflecting.
Information booster:
· ✨ If two nouns represent different things (e.g., "percentage" and "number"), then the verb must be plural.
· ✨ If two nouns represent one combined idea (e.g., "time and tide"), then the verb is singular.
❌ Why other options are wrong:
· (a) were reflective on — Wrong preposition ("on" ❌); it should be "of."
· (c) has reflected — Wrong tense (Present Perfect Singular ❌) and doesn't match the continuous description.
· (d) is reflective of — Wrong verb (Singular "is" ❌); subject is plural.
