Question

Fill in the blank with a suitable preposition:

He tried to open the tin __________ a knife.

• A. With
• B. Within
• C. From
• D. Out of

Answer 1

The correct option is A With

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 A)with is correct as it indicates a method. The other options are wrong as within, from, and out of indicate including the inside of something, a source, and away from the inside of something respectively. These uses don't fit in the given question. The correct answer is A)with.
