Correct Answer: than


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option .

The sentence compares two explanations: your explanation and Rekha's explanation. The word simpler indicates that one explanation is easier to understand than the other. Therefore, we need a word that shows comparison. Than is a comparative conjunction that is used to compare two things.

Therefore, the complete sentence is: Your explanation was simpler than Rekha’s explanation.
