Answer:

D. The contest received over two hundred​ essays; three were judged to be good enough for publication.

Explanation:

In a correct grammatical sentence, there are numerous punctuation marks that can signify how a sentence can be correctly written. These punctuation marks play an important role in how the sentence comes out and is represented.

In the given sentence, the best/ correct sentence is the sentence that has the semi-colon in it. This semi-colon allows the two parts of the sentence to be separate yet have a connection. The <em><u>semi-colon is used to connect two related sentences yet have contrasting opinions or statements</u></em>.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
