Correct Answer: tumultuous


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

Explanation : The sentence structure indicates that the missing word should be an adjective that describes the nature of the applause. Tumultuous fits this context, as it means loud, excited, and characterised by disorderly noise or commotion. In this sentence, it conveys the idea that the applause at the end of the show was enthusiastic, lively, and possibly accompanied by a great deal of noise and excitement.

So, the correct sentence would be: "The show played to full houses for a five-night run and ended to tumultuous applause on Saturday night."
