Question

Of the four designs, those two are the most identical. Which phrase correctly restates the underlined absolute modifier?

Answer 1

c. the most similar

because "identical" is superlative. "Identicalest" isn't a word and "more identical than the others" is comparative. Most similar is a synonym of identical. The word "identical" by itself is an absolute modifier, so putting "most" in front wouldn't be correct.

Answer 2

The correct answer is A.more identical than the others
The others don't make any sense and are improper grammar
