Answer:

Nicolas wants TO JUMP on the trampoline.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer can only be A as it is the only sentence that contains an infinitive (to jump).

An infinitive is the word 'to' plus any verb.

An infinitive phrase is the sentence fragment (i.e., the phrase) in which the infinitive is contained.

Now, go do your math, Sam. ;)
