Correct Answer: (1)


Solution : The error lies in the first part and is related to the order of pronouns.

The order of pronouns in positive situations states that the second person should come in the first place, followed by the third person, and lastly by the first person. This makes the sentence grammatically correct.

Therefore, the correct sentence is, " My wife and I were declared the best couple at the party."
