agree with you. the only tiny problem is that on gmat they don't accept two answers...

unfortunatelly, no..

this question was on one of the tests of cd, supplied with book, i just screen-printed the question to discuss..

My guess at the explanation would be:

Not only the use of create instead of creation plays part in this, the use of word unrelated (more sufficient) instead of less related also plays part. So as styolar mentioned to lead to can be used with noun and verb, the use of unrelated just makes the sentence more efficient and to the point.

hey guys,
I guess I POSTED THE EXPALNATION to mr surat twice,thinking it is for the forum.
here it is (or so ),


lets examine the underlined part of the sentence,''to the creation of divisions that are'',

the subject here is ''creation''(noun),''divisions'' also is a subject but the question is, what are we talking about here -we are talking about the ''creation of divisions'', which shows that ''creation'' is the main subject.

RULE 1,the verb follows the subject,hence it should be ''the creation of divisions that is (instread of are)'', but we do not have a given choice of that kind here.hence the ''divisions ''( as in choice C) takes over as the main subject, as given in the choce C) TO '' CREATE DIVISIONS THAT ARE'' SUITS THE BEST.COS ''TO CREATE'' HERE ADORNS THE GARB OF a verb than a subject. AND ''ARE'' folllows ''DIVISIONS''(plural).

RULE 2, avoid WORDINESS.
HENCE THE ISSUE Of ''less related '' to ''unrelated'' arises.
welcome any comments,

have fun!

no comments at all, everything is clear, alisher... (alisher is arabian name, translation from lionheart.. )

You guys are going about it all wrong....this one's actually pretty easy.



Using the words "increasingly less" doesn't make sense. It's unclear and unidiomatic...how can you have something increasing when it's declining?

This eliminates 2 & 4.

Now the term "less related" is unidomatic. For example, would I be less related to a co-worker than to my brother? That doesn't make sense, does it? You are either related or unrelated. I am UNRELATED to my co-worker.

This eliminates 1 & 5 along with 2 & 4 as well. In each of these there are other errors too that I won't go into.

I've found in SC, that you'll usually find more than one error in an incorrect sentence.

hey ,
thanks ''look''!( I belive it the NOUN here not the VERB pal.I believ surat means ur ''look '' in hindi!)or may be ''handsome (khoobsurat)!
have fun!

hey ,
hota!Must agree quite a scientific way of explaining!
nice, anyway .Thanks!
have fun!

B.

unreleted is a correct expression.
we prefer "unreleted" to "less related" as we do with "regardless" to irregardless"

3 for me. The only reason I chose 3 was IMO creation of did not fit here.

I'll go with C. 'Increasingly less' is a turn off.
