Medium
The volume of a sphere of diameter 1 unit is _________ than the volume of a cube of side 1 unit.
- Aleast
- less
- Clesser
- Dlow
Explanation
'Less' is the standard comparative used for comparing two quantities. 'Least' is a superlative (used among 3+ items, not a plain two-way comparison), 'lesser' is typically reserved for non-quantitative comparisons of importance/degree (e.g. 'the lesser evil'), and 'low' isn't a comparative form at all.
