Correct option is C
Between and Among are both prepositions used to describe relationships or distributions, but they are used in different contexts:
Between: Used when referring to two people or things.
Among: Used when referring to more than two people or things, in a collective or undefined group.
Sentence Evaluation:
(S1) "The matter was resolved amicably between the group even though there were so many of them."
Incorrect usage of "between".
Reason: "The group" contains more than two people, and the phrase also confirms this with “so many of them”. Hence, "among" should be used.
Corrected version: “The matter was resolved amicably among the group even though there were so many of them.”
(S2) "Among them the two never have problems sharing what they have."
Incorrect usage of "among".
Reason: The subject is about two individuals, so "between" should be used instead of "among".
Corrected version: “Between them the two never have problems sharing what they have.”
Final Answer: Neither sentence uses the highlighted word correctly.
Hence, the correct response is:(c) Both (S1) and (S2) are wrong.
