Answer: A

The correct option is A.

Explanation:

The grammatical construction "as ... as" is used to compare two equal things or actions. This structure strictly requires the positive degree of the adjective or adverb between the two "as" words.

  • well is the positive degree of the adverb. Therefore, "as well as" is grammatically correct.
  • better is the comparative degree (of good/well), making "as better as" incorrect.
  • nicest is the superlative degree (of nice), making "as nicest as" incorrect.
  • worse is the comparative degree (of bad/badly), making "as worse as" incorrect.

Thus, the complete sentence is: "Gauri said that she can play the keyboard as well as her sister."
