Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option to complete the sentence:

The management hiked the workers' wages to ________with the rise in prices.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

'Keep up with' means to stay at the same level or pace as something, so wages were raised to keep up with rising prices. 'Keep on' and 'carry on' mean to continue, and 'draw up' means to prepare a document; none collocates with 'the rise in prices'.
