Answer: Option B

Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
Use 'an' before words such as "hour" which sound like they start with a vowel even if the first letter is a consonant. Also use 'an' before letters and numbers which sound like they begin with a vowel, such as "F" or "8". 'An' will be used before 's.m.s'.
