Question

Select the option that best completes the sentence: "Had I known about the meeting earlier, I ____ attended it."

• A. would have
• B. will have
• C. had
• D. would be

Hint:

Type-3 conditionals describe imaginary situations in the past. They follow the pattern: "If + past perfect, then + would have + V3."

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Sentence Classification.
This is a Type-3 conditional sentence, indicating an unreal past condition. It is employed to convey regret or hypothetical past scenarios. 
Step 2: Structural Application. 
The appropriate structure is: 
"If + past perfect, then + would have + past participle." 
In this instance, "Had I known" is an inverted rendition of "If I had known." Consequently, the subsequent clause should be: 
"I would have attended it."
