Question 1 Report

Fill in the gap(s) with the most appropriate option from the list following the gap(s).

_______ woman was attacked by a group of bandits

Answer Details
The most appropriate option to fill in the gap is "a 90-year old" as it follows the correct format for hyphenating compound adjectives that include numbers and age. In this case, "90-year" functions as a single adjective modifying the noun "woman." The other options include incorrect or nonstandard forms of hyphenation or use of plurals where they are not needed.
