Hi,there! I'm preparing for GMAT test. Can someone help me figure out what the difference between the following modifers?
correspondingly increased sales
corresponding increases in sales
These two phrases are from the following question in OG:
Rising inventories, when unaccompanied correspondingly by increases in sales, can lead to production cutbacks that would hamper economic growth.
(A) when unaccompanied correspondingly by increases in sales, can lead
(B) when not accompanied by corresponding increases in sales, possibly leads
(C) when they were unaccompanied by corresponding sales increases, can lead
(D) if not accompanied by correspondingly increased sales, possibly leads
(E) if not accompanied by corresponding increases in sales, can lead
the right answer is E, and I still wanna know whether "possibly" can replace "can" regardless the false of agreement in the answer choice？
Thank you for help!
