Correct Answer: factual


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option .

Factual means to be based on facts or on things that are proven to be true. This is the appropriate choice according to the context of the sentence, which says that there is no evidence based on facts to support his assertion.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Facile means too easy or not needing effort.
  • Fictitious means something that is not true or real.
  • Facetious means not to be serious about a serious subject.

Therefore, the complete sentence is: There is no factual evidence to support your assertion.
