Studdy Solution
Determine which word best fits the context of the sentence. The sentence should logically connect the list of arithmetic operations with the concept of basic arithmetic.
- "summing" does not fit well as it is too specific and implies only addition. - "including" fits well as it implies that these operations are part of basic arithmetic. - "comprising" also fits well but is less commonly used in this context. - "containing" is less appropriate as it implies physically holding, which does not fit the context of skills.
The best choice is "including".
Solution: The word that best completes blank \#27 is: b. including
