Correct Answer: (3)
Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.
The sentence contains an error in the subject-verb agreement. The subject group is singular, so the verb should also be singular.
Were is the incorrect form of the verb; it should be was.
Therefore, the correct sentence is, "Most of the members at the meeting felt that the group appointed to investigate the case was not competent to do the job efficiently".
