Supposing if / it rains / what shall / we do?

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option A
The error is in Option A: Supposing if.
The word "supposing" and "if" have the same meaning in this context.
Using them together is redundant (unnecessary repetition).
You should use either "supposing" or "if," but not both.
For example, you can say: "Supposing it rains, what shall we do?" or "If it rains, what shall we do?"
So, the correct option is A: Supposing if because it contains the error.

Supposing means if, 2 conditional words are redundancy here. So one ll be omitted.

Given sentence is a Conditional sentence. And Supposing as well as IF, both are Conditional words. So, we need to remove supposing as in Conditional sentence If is used.

Why we should delete 'Supposing'?
