Correct Answer:  little


Solution : The correct answer is option 4.

Shyam would like to have helped Rohan but he had ______  knowledge so he had to deny him.

Explanation:

Let's examine how the following adjectives differ:
- Little-hardly any. (used in a negative sense)

- A little-some but not much.  (when used positively)

- The little that is available, though it is not much.

- These adjectives can all be applied to uncountable nouns.
- The word "little" will be used in the sentence's blank since "knowledge " is an uncountable noun and the subject is short on knowledge .
- So, based on the information provided, option 4 is the right response.
