Choose the correct word from the given options to fill in the blank in the given sentence.

The fabric of this new outfit is __________ inferior in comparison to the old one.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

'Inferior' is already comparative in force (it takes 'to'), so it cannot combine with 'more' or 'most', and 'very' does not modify comparatives. The intensifier used with such comparatives is 'much', giving 'much inferior in comparison to the old one'.
