Correct Answer: (1)
Solution : The sentence can be improved using the first option.
The original sentence contains an incorrect use of the word vast . In this context, vast is not the appropriate word to describe the number of factors affecting job performance. One should use a number that means many to convey the idea of a significant or considerable number of factors.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "Job performance is affected by a number of factors."
