Answer

Answer: Option D

Solution

Answer: Option D
Solution:
We use the article 'the' when the adjectives (that modify the same nouns) are in the superlative degree. (The superlative degree denotes the highest quality or degree.) The words 'toughest' and 'last' are both in the superlative degree. Hence we use 'the' in both cases.
