Correct Answer: (3)
Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.
Since is used to indicate a specific point in time in the past (e.g., since 2000), while for is used to indicate a duration or period of time. In this context, the intended meaning refers to a duration of fifteen years, so for is the correct preposition to use.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: He served as President of the Lions Club for fifteen years.
