Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.

I would _____ him if I had seen him in time.

• A. tell
• B. have told
• C. told
• D. had told

Answer 1

The correct option is B have told

The sentence refers to an action which did not actually happen(telling him) because something else did not happen at first(seeing him in time). Hence, "would have", that is, future perfect+past participle of the verb (told) should be used. Hence, Option B is correct. The rest of the options do not adhere to this rule, hence, incorrect.
