A
to
B
by
C
with
D
for
Correct Answer: C
Choice C is the best answer. The verb "comply" is followed by the preposition "with."
Choice A is incorrect because "comply to" is a common error; one conforms "to" but complies "with." Choice B is incorrect because "comply by" is not the correct preposition. Choice D is incorrect because "comply for" is not standard usage.
