Correct Answer: (2)


Solution : The correct choice is the second option.

The modal "will" should be changed to "would" because the sentence expresses a hypothetical situation in the past as per the third conditional. Its structure is, " If + past perfect, would/wouldn't have + past participle" .

Therefore, the correct sentence is: "If I had remembered this, it would have prevented some mistakes."
