Correct Answer: eldest


Solution : The correct answer is option 1.

The woman whom we saw at the party is the eldest sister of Sohan.

Explanation:

- The article "the" comes before a superlative degree if one thing is chosen from "more than two" or "all."
.The adjective "eldest" will be the appropriate choice in this context because the definite article "the" comes before the given blank.

Eldest means one among a group of individuals who are related or otherwise connected of the greatest age.
