Correct Answer: (3)
Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.
The comparative degree "better" is employed to compare two things. In this particular sentence, it compares the climates of two places. When comparing one thing to another, it's appropriate to use "that of" for singular comparison after the comparative degree of the adjective in the sentence.
So, the correct sentence should be: "The climate of Mumbai is better than that of Hyderabad."
