Question

There were a (pare, pair, pear) of students that were always falling asleep during lectures. Of course, they failed miserably and lost their financial aid.

Answer 1

Answer:

pair

Explanation:

It would be pair because that means 2 sets of the same object that are together. However, a pear is the fruit and a pare means to cut something off, so it wouldn't be them.

Hope this helps :)
