Question

Which sentence uses the word among or between incorrectly? The principal was able to settle the argument between Nate and Mario. I could not find my homework between the papers in my messy locker. Mrs. Currie is my favorite among all of my teachers.

Answer 1

In the sentence : I cold not find my homework between the papers in my messy locker .

It states that the locker is messy, from that we understand that there are a lot of papers not only two. So we can say "among" should be used not "between".
