The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

The error is in part (B). The phrase "either of the plans" is singular, so the verb should be "suits" (which is correctly used in the sentence). However, the correct structure should use "either plan suits" rather than "either of the plans suit," as "either" always refers to a single option. Therefore, part (B) should be changed to "either plan suits."
