Suggested: Upcoming government exams
Correct Answer: One of my friend
Solution : The error lies in the first option.
Explanation:
When expressing possession with a distributive phrase like "one of," the noun that follows should be in the plural form.
"Friend" needs to be pluralized to "friends" to match the correct grammatical structure.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: One of my friends called me just as I was leaving the classroom.
