Correct Answer: (3)


Solution : The error lies in the t hird part of the sentence.

The phrase "out of" should be replaced with "off". "Off-topic" means something which is not related to the matter being discussed, and "off the main topic" is the correct usage in this sentence.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: The conversation we are having is completely off the main topic .
