Correct Answer: in front of him


Solution : The correct choice is the f ourth option.

The phrase "right at the front of him" indicates the location where the friends were exchanging notes, emphasising their proximity to the invigilator. A suitable option to substitute this segment could be "right in front of him," as the "in" preposition is the correct usage to indicate the position of an object that is in front of him.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: The invigilator did not know that the four friends were exchanging notes right in front of him.
