• A. from
• B. by
• C. with

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

by

A preposition is a word which comes before a noun or a pronoun and establishes a relationship between the elements of a clause or words. Option B)by is correct as it indicates an agent. The other options are wrong as from, with, and of indicate a source, inclusion, and possession respectively. These uses don't fit in the given question. The correct answer is B)by.
