Hi, please check the two questions below. Though I've checked their explanations on respective threads, I'm still confused between 'less than' and 'lower than'.
Q1:
Even though the direct costs of malpractice disputes amounts to a sum lower than one percent of the $541 billion the nation spent on health care last year, doctors say fear of lawsuits plays major role in health-care inflation.
(A) amounts to a sum lower
(B) amounts to less
(C) amounted to less
(D) amounted to lower
(E) amounted to a lower sum
Answer- C
Q2:
Although the government's expenditures on law suits involving tobacco companies amounts to a sum dramatically lower than that spent by tobacco companies, many believe that the government should allocate no more funds to a battle they perceive as pointless.
(A) expenditures on law suits involving tobacco companies amounts to a sum dramatically lower than

What's your specific question Gaurav?
Also, I noticed that the second question that you've posted, is an unofficial question. This is not a recommended practice.
The best sources of practice as well as for learning, are the official questions.
