Question

select the correct answer.
which phrase best completes this sentence?
viajar en el bus es _______ alquilar un auto.
a. más económico que
b. más caro que
c. menos económico que
d. más importante que

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the meaning of each option in the context of traveling by bus vs. renting a car.

• Option A: "más económico que" means "cheaper than". Logically, taking a bus is usually cheaper than renting a car.
• Option B: "más caro que" means "more expensive than", which does not fit the typical cost comparison.
• Option C: "menos económico que" means "less economical than", which is the opposite of the usual situation.
• Option D: "más importante que" means "more important than", which is irrelevant to a cost - based comparison.

Answer:

A. más económico que
