Correct Answer: the efficient electrician
Solution : The third option is the correct choice.
- Here, we would replace "the" with "an" to correct the sentence.
- The definite article (the) is used to refer to specific or particular nouns.
- The indefinite article (an) is used to modify non-specific or non-particular nouns. It is used to talk about general things or people.
- "An" would be used before the word "efficient" as it starts with a vowel sound.
