Correct Answer: (1)


Solution : The first option is the correct choice.

The original sentence lacks the necessary preposition "upon" to convey the correct meaning. In this context, to follow someone's instructions, we "act upon" those instructions, meaning to take action based on them.

Acted upon your is the correct choice because it provides the necessary preposition upon to make the sentence grammatically and semantically correct.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: We acted upon your instructions.
