Question

The manager noticed / that Pragya / was first to reach / the office on Saturday.

A.

that Pragya

B.

was first to reach

C.

The manager noticed

D.

the office on Saturday.

Correct option is B


Explanation:
The article “the” is missing before “first”. With ordinal numbers (like first, second, etc.), we always use “the”.

...that Pragya was the first to reach the office on Saturday.
Grammar Rule:
Use “the” before ordinal numbers.
He was the first to arrive.
