o errors\ button. drag the items below to the passage above to complete the question as instructed. many college graduates are unemployed or underemployed. which means employed in a job for which they are overqualified. subordinate clause: a subordinate clause begins with a subordinating word (such as although, because, that, if, or who) and therefore cannot stand alone as a sentence.

Explanation:

The original sentence has a punctuation and grammar error. The phrase “Which means” is incorrect as it starts a subordinate clause that cannot stand alone after a period. We need to either connect it properly (using a comma - and making the “W” lowercase) or rephrase. The provided option “underemployed. If someone is underemployed, they are” fixes the sentence structure by creating two proper sentences. The first sentence states the situation of college graduates, and the second sentence (starting with “If...”) correctly explains what “underemployed” means.

Answer:

Many college graduates are unemployed or underemployed. If someone is underemployed, they are employed in a job for which they are overqualified.
