.facts
Answer Details
The word that has the same consonant sound(s) as the one represented by the letters underlined in "facts" is "lots."
The consonant sound in "facts" is /kts/, and the word "lots" contains the same consonant sound /ts/ in the same order. The other options, "face," "fast," and "loathes," do not contain the same consonant sound as "facts." "Face" has the /s/ sound at the end instead of the /ts/ sound, "fast" has the /st/ sound instead of the /kts/ sound, and "loathes" has the /ðz/ sound at the end instead of the /kts/ sound. Therefore, the correct answer is "lots."
